Hey guys I was wondering if someone could possibly give me a hint on the best way to dimension bend lines while in the bent form. I am finding that I have to "Draw in View" and then draw a couple of lines to get me the apex of the bend line (when it's at an angle). Is this correct? I would like to think there is a simpler way of going about this, it is very time consuming to dimension bend lines at angle's using this method.Any comments would be greatly appreciated.
