rotate text for angle dimension

Hi, 

 

Is it possible to rotate the text for angle dimenions call out?

 

please see attached example.

i would like the orientation of the text to be on the same side of the dimension line, rather than opposite as shown

I don't think it is possible to get one of them to flip and read the same as the other.  Creo is trying to keep the text closer to right side up. flipping the lower one would make it closer to upside down.

 

You could move the lower text up above the horizontal axis to get it to flip.  The other option is to make both oriented horizontal.

There is always more to learn in Creo.

The text orientation is controlled by the Display control box.  Parallel Above is what is shown in your image.  Parallel outside may be what you want.
