shown dimensions come in "RED" until I repaint, then they change to "yellow"...

I am seeing what I think is odd behavior in drawing mode. I show a dimension, close the show/erase pop-up, and the dimension is a dark red color... UNTIL I repaint (it doesn't change with a regen), then it changes to thenormal YELLOW color like all my other dimensions. I am NOT talking about the "select to keep" highlighting that is red, this is AFTER I close the show/erase pop-up. What I would like, is the "normal" (??) behavior where shown dimensions areyellow WITHOUT having to repaint. I am thinking it's either a config optionOR something in my syscol.scl file. Anyone know how to "fix" this?

Thanks in advance...

I've always thought that was a "feature" to let me know what dims I've just shown. If I've shown a bunch at once,I can see what may need some attention as to placement. But for me the reality yet another mouse click with no added value.

It's a config.pro option...

highlight_new_dims

Default value is 'no', but I think that's a change from older versions.
