Created dimension showing grey (hidden line) in drawing

Any idea what's causing this?  It's a legacy-based drawing so it's possible there's a setting somewhere, but I can't find it if so.  I've regenerated, repainted and updated views...  Creo 3.

The dimension text at least is set to yellow (letter), and I've tried setting it to something else and back again:

Thanks for any help!

Okay, twenty minutes of continuing to work on the drawing and it's now fixed itself...

Finding the same issue myself.  WTF????

Perhaps the dimension has been “modified” through dim-bound function? You can check in the drawing by “sketching” a dimension on the same feature and seeing if it shows a different value.

Like noted above, after a while, it just turned yellow by itself.  Weird.  But then, I'm having issues with this M130 datecode (PDF creation causes it to crash) so I'll upgrade to M170 and see if that fixes it.
