Right clicking on the extruded sketch in the tree - yellow dimensions come up that you can edit, but you are not in sketch mode where you can add dimensions. How is this accessed on an existing part?

if u are selecting the feature then right mouse clicking and selecting edit, all u will get will be the dimensions used to create that feature in sketcher mode. if u use the same picks except select edit difinition, then that will redirect u into sketcher mode where u can change the sketch, add delete or change dimensioning scheme etc etc etc

Thanks Carlos, however, edit definition takes me into where I can edit the extrude thickness. I need to get into the sketcher mode for the part to add dimensions. Edit and edit definition are the only 2 choices in the menu. Is there a way to get to the sketcher from edit definition after it takes you to where you modify the extrusion thickness?
