Dennis,
Cost of progress. I assume you already noticed that the equal constraint
is has only about 20% the functionality as it did a few releases ago.
This reference dimension thing has continually given me a sore neck from
me cocking my head sideways and asking the monitor what the $&%@ it
thinks it is doing.
Sometimes you can force them.
Take a normal dim that affects the driven dim's placement and change it
to driven. Place a normal dim where you want the driven dim. Force this
normal dim to a driven dim via the styles pulldown, then change the
driven dim (that used to be a normal dim) back to a normal dim.
I was going to do a mockery of the "Single Day Productivity" slogan, but
decided against it.

> In 5.3 I can create reference dimensions in sketch mode to my hearts
content. They became very valuable as I would use them to determine
placement of multiple features. Now, in IV 7, I have alot of trouble
creating reference dimensions from adjacent features on the same
surface. I have to change the way I'm working now and it has stumped me
on a few occasions. Does anyone else have issues with this and is there
a "new" feature I need to enable or is this the cost of progress?
