Diameter dimension in sketcher for revolved features

I cannot get this config.pro option:

 

sketcher_dim_of_revolve_axis yes

 

to work.

 

Although it is yes even as default value the Intent Maneger Dimensions to the centerline are radius dimensions instead of diameter dimensions.

 

Is something wrong with my centerline? I think there is only one type of CL again. I can manually create diameter dimensions and the feature regenerates OK.

I just wonder what happened to the option.

There are two types of centerlines. There is a geometry centerline and construction centerline. You want the geometry centerline which is in the datum area of the ribbon (as opposed to the construction centerline in the sketching area of the ribbon).
