Greetings,
Is there a way to flip the dimension of an angled datum plane to the opposite side?
I can type negative on the dimension but that just flips it horizontally across the datum plane.
I need the dimension to go in the upper quadrant so that the numbers will be correct when they go past 90 degrees.
I have tried selecting front, back of the datum plane to no avail.
Any weird key clicks like hold shift or something that the ergonomic click police have invented for this?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Amazing, but I don't think that's possible in the standard modeling mode.
You can get tantalizingly close by right-clicking on the 37.0 dimension, selecting "properties" and then using "Move" to get the dimension to show up in the upper right quadrant. Unfortunately, the dimension doesn't stay there... (Creo 2.0 M210).
You can get the dimension to show up properly on a combined state:
And of course, you can move the dimension to the correct place in the drawing...

I made a revolved cut with a dimension from the upper quadrant to the axis.
Would be nice to be able to use the actual hole tool though.
