STICKY sketcher dims???

Why oh why......do my sketcher dims end up different places than where I left them when I re-enter a sketch?

Have they gone out partying the night before and forgotten where they live?

Or is this a friendly Pro E "feature"?

    My favorite is when an angular dimension goes haywire and you have to zoom out to 100,000 ft to see it. Those angular ones are always the troublemakers.

    You bring up a good point, though... a nice enhancement request would be to have those dimensions behave. If you place them carefully enough, this would really help when it came down to detailing. Imagine shwoing dimensions and having them already close to being correct. Right now, you get a mess!

    It would be nice if you could add snap lines to a sketch to control the offsets and locations of dimensions. But of course, I haven't thought through the ramifications of such a request so maybe it would hurt more than it helped? Hmm...

    Consider it a friendly feature for now.
