I am dimensioning to the CG symbol we use. The problem I’m having is that since the scale of the view is 1:10 the dimension is coming up wrong. It should be 693. Now while I know how to override this, I would rather have the dimension come up correct. Is there a way that you know of to do this?

Dimension to symbol

Add a point object in modeling at the CG, dimension to the point. In drafting, associate your symbol to the existing point.

When the mass properties is run it places a point at the CG in the model.
Then what I have done in your situation was associate the CG symbol (on the drawing) to that point and the dimensions to that point too, so when the CG changes the point will move and what is associated to it will move with it.

If you're working in Master Model mode, you'll need to remember to 'manually' edit your 'Model' Reference Set to include the 'point' object created by the Measurement feature since it will not be included automatically.
