Annotation - Dimension superfix and subfix formatting

[gmatelich]

It appears that the text justification of dimensions is set to the center of the dimension. This makes for funny looking text blocks.

for instance:

            9X C.03 x 45° AROUND PROFILE 
WASH OUT AS SHOWN IN DETAIL 1

What I would like to see is something more like:

9X C.03 x 45° AROUND PROFILE 
WASH OUT AS HOWN IN DETAIL 1

Is there a way to set the dimension for right (or left) justifiction? I find the current superfixes and subfixes so ugly that I rarely use them despite having frequent opportunity to use them.

Another irritation I have w/ superfixes and subfixes is that I would rather see the dimension leader attached to the top-most line, rather than the middle of the text block.

I do not see a voting button - so I guess that all I need to do is to post a reply.

I also have to deal with this issue, and would like to see it addressed in a future release. I also agree that I would like to have a choice for the position of the leader line - not just be stuck with in line with the dim text.

I currently use free placed text instead of "fix" test. Creates a lot of work when you need to move a dimension.

See the thread Please Read: How to Use This Forum - Posting and Voting at the top of this "Enhancement Requests for CoCreate" forum for instructions on how to vote. Short answer is that we use the thread rating system. You can rate any thread from the Rate Thread drop down at the top of the thread view.

Thanks for helping me out. I had looked at the rating buttons, but convinced myself that it was for general interest rating - not the voting.

I have now "voted".
