Hello, When I dimention parts I know that when you do an iso view, the text lines up in an angle (depending what way or angle you rotate the object) Is there a way to fix the text side to side. Here's a picture of what I'm talking about.
Thank you

I am not familiar with editing image files in Inventor.

I can't post it on here. It saids that the file is too large. I put the jpeg file on there because I just want you to look how it is as I explained it.
That can't possible be too large?
Find the red End of Part marker at the bottom of the feature tree and drag it to the top of the browser hidding all features.
Save the file with the EOP in a rolled up state.
Copy the part and drawing file into a folder.
Right click on the folder and select Send to Compressed (zipped) Folder.
Attach the resulting *.zip file here.

No, has nothing to do with anything else.
1. Create a folder.
2. Copy only the part file for which you placed image earlier.
3. Copy the drawing or create a new drawing of only the part file for which you placed image earlier with same dimension behavior.
Zip and attach the folder here as instructed.

It still said it's too large. Do you know the problem from the file I attached? If you can't don't worry about it.
What file size are you seeing - something is very wrong here.
I made up a quick example and it is only 220k and I didn't even bother with the EOP trick.
1.Download the attachment below.
2. Right click on the *zip file and select Extract all.
3. Open the idw file.
is this example what you are trying to get?

While placing the dimension, before you pick the spot for it, right click and choose "Annotation Plane", then select "Use Sheet Plane"... assuming that you are actually in an Inventor IDW.... it's hard to tell form your image exactly what you are working in.
