Adding a Dimension to an Existing Ordinate Dimension

[Gavin_Lewis]

Is it possible to add a dimension reference to an existing ordinate dimension?

In the image below, the top hole is a new feature. I want to add it to the existing ordinate dimensions, but can't figure out how without deleting everything and starting over.

This may vary a little based on what version you are using but most likely.

in the annotate tab, select Ordinate Dimension, if you look on the message log, it tells you  "Select an entity to create a new baseline or select an existing baseline ordinate dimension to use it or middle-click to cancel."

If you pick an existing ordinate baseline (aka .000, in your case), you should be able to added ordinate dimensions.

Yes, you are correct, not sure how I missed it. Thanks.

haha, Creo is notoriously non-intuitive!  But it grows on you.

I learn new tricks constantly as I review the community.
