Ordinate dimension in DimXpert?

Anyone know if there's a way to do ordinate dimensioning in DimXpert? The two options I see are baseline and chain. These options are not as compact and require more manual moving things around afterwards.

Another approach to creating drawings quicker is Autodimension (which does have ordinate dimensioning), however, it doesn't provide as much control over how many decimal places you get for different features. With DimXpert, for example, it looks like you can have all radiuses dimensioned at .x while dimensions to holes at .xxx (using the default titleblock tolerances)
