Are you refering to jogging a witness line? Select the dimension, then RMB over the witness line to get the "insert jog" option.

nope, not the witness/leader line, the actual dimension line so that it matches the foreshortened view (broken view as creo calls it)

I have never seen Creo do this before, except maybe on a radius dimension.

Everything I have ever done with broken views creates the dimensions as if they are normal. I have, in the past when the dimension was confusing, just deleted one of the witness lines so the dimension would show with double arrows (example below)

If you figure it out a solution or even a work-around, I would like to know also.
