I'm using Inventor 2013 and I'm trying to create a new dimension style that shows a box or parenthesis rather than a dimension. The purpose is so the workers in the field can meausre a part and fill in the dimension.
So far the best I can do is make a dimension style that is white so that it comes out as a space. The other option was to manually override the dimension, but I don't want to go into every drawing and change every dimension.
What I would truly like is if the dimension would automatically come out looking like this [ ]
If you cannot find a setting of Dimension Style meets your requirement, I think you have to draw dimension by Client Graphics yourself. i,e, draw a 'dimension' without any style. However, of course, this means you need to make sure the 'dimension' is linked with the drawing curve.
