Dimensioning to holes in flat pattern 2

[prooney]

I've created a cylinder that is going to be made from plate and rolled which has pipes running into it and I need to dimension to the holes in the flat pattern view but I can't dimension to the holes in the flat pattern. Any ideas??

Ok let me explain what I did and see if I did this correctly. This is per Theo's suggestion: I went into my sketch and rolled back the flattened stage and sketched 2 horizontal lines and 2 vertical lines and then added tangent relations to the lines and the hole. Then i add lines between the construction lines and add a point at the intersection.

Now will this point show up on the flat pattern in the drawing?

It should if you select the Show Sketch option in that drawing view. Show the feature tree for that drawing view, find the sketch, and right-click to select Show Sketch, like CorBlimeyLimey mentioned.
