Dimensioning issue:
Is there a technique or option that can be applied to prevent an arrowhead from hiding the second pick on small features.

Below pics are for reference only how arrow head hides a small feature.

You can use config option suppress_dim_ghost_with_ctrl with value as yes. Setting this option will suppress the dim preview on using CTRL.

That does the trick, was exactly what I was looking for.

Here is another example where the floating dimension hides the second pick again. Would it not be a better solution if PTC delayed the display of the dimension?
