I haven't had a need to use a folded radius dimension in a while, but now have a drawing where it would be quite useful. Has Siemens done away with it? The command finder isn't helping...
[edit] What I really need this time is a way to extend the radius dimension line to the center of a large radius.[\edit]

Start the radial dimension command and pick the "radial" method and the "create folded radius" option should appear right under the method type (on the measurement section of the dialog). If the "measurement" section is hidden, you might need to use "show more" or "show collapsed groups" options.

Note: you will need to use the radial dimension command, it apparently doesn't show up in the "rapid dimension" dialog.
