Angle Dimension Problems

[Anonymous]

I am having trouble with the angle dimension feature. I can get an angle
dimension to stick to a part an IDW drawing of an assembly until I save the
drawing and reopen it. When I reopen the drawing, the angle dimension is
highlighted pink with a pink dot at the intersection of the two angled
surfaces. I have only seen this problem on 90 degree angles.

Has anyone else had this trouble? Is there a work around or setting that I
can change?

Pink dims = sick dims. I would look for another dim that I could delete that
will return the dims to normal, then I would expect to be able to place and
retain the angle dim.

Jeff,
I've had exactly the same problem. My workaround is detailed in thread
"Angle dimension won't stay" - 5th December. Glad someone else is seeing it
as well though!!
