I am using NX version 8 drafting. I want to place most dimensions
on views that are derived from 0,0 origin of part. Is there a way for
NX to show origin point from which to dimension from?
Thanks in advance
 
Have you looked at using Ordinate Dimensions?

Place a point at the origin and dimension from that?
