reference dimensions in sketcher

[ptc-2686227]

Hey, I'm sort of new to pro e (again), last version I used was wf2, but now I'm on wf4. I used it a while at a previous job, went back to Solidworks, and now I'm back. So, I'm sketching (it's all coming back to me, though a bit slowly), and I spasticly clicked something, somewhere (don't know what or how) and made all my sketch dimensions became reference dimensions, and I don't know how ot turn them back ot normal dimensions. The easy solution is to delete all my ref dimensions and place them over again, but it woudl be nice to know what I did and how to undo it for future "reference"... Thanks, BM

Hey Barna Madau, http://www.ptc.com/community/proewf4/start.htm Here you can find a tutorial programm for Wildfire 4.0 Now i try to explain how you can get a reference dimension. First you must create two lines. Then you can create your dimension. Click a line with the left mouse button and place this with the middle mouse button. Do this with the other line again. Now you must create a new dimension. The resolve sketch window appears. Every time this window will be open if you have to much dimensions. If you click Dim > Ref you get a reference dimension. I hope it helps. Regards Jürgen

Hello Barna, there is a bug in some releases of WF4. You should ask the hotline.
