So we just did a massive upgrade (if you'll call it that) from NX8.5 to NX 12. There must be a setting which I can't find but my problem is this... I have an assembly open with many parts in it. I make a component the work part. I edit a sketch or even create a new sketch in that part, all the dimensions I create are locked in place and I can't drag them. I can open that part in a new window and all of a sudden the dimensions can be drug around. Go back into the assembly, work with the component as the work part and the dims are locked. Is there a setting to make it so the dimensions can be moved around? Thanks!

NX 12, windows 10
 
That seems like a bug to me. I suggest to report it at GTac (could not find an existing IR)
Which version of NX12 are you using? NX12, 12.0.1 or 12.0.2?

Have you checked your layer settings by chance?
