I've tried using the 'dimension' tool but it does not allow me to dimension any drafted round. I can't use 'Show model annotations' as the data was imported from a separate file. Any ideas how I can create a dimension for a drafted round? I've never had this problem in Creo 2.0..

Hi Jeffrey,

Please upload an image and/or the file you are trying to work with.

It will help understand the issue.

Hi Amit,

Here's an image showing my attempt to dimension the round (which is drafted by 1.5 degrees in the model) using the 'dimension' tool. No dimension shows up when i click the round.

Thanks

Are you tying to dimension the radius of that edge? Depending on how the round was created. that edge may not be circular, therefore no radius dim is possible. If the part was drafted then the round applied, that edge is elliptical.
