    <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;thanks for the reply.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Most the dimensions i'm removing are retrieved (i'm trying to set up my model so i can retrieve all dimensions required). From what i'm reading this might make it tough, but we'll see.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;My only thought was that Autodesk must have a method of doing this within the program as when you use the 'Arrange' command it seems to know what view each dimension comes from. Could someone from Autodesk answer this please?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;thanks again,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;John&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I would like to be able to get all the dimensions from a single view on the drawing sheet (the drawing sheet has several views).&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;From what I have seen the dimensions are at the sheet level (so I can't use the dimension's parent). How do you get a collection of dimensions for a specific views?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;(similar to how you can get the collection of drawing curves for a specific view)&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;thanks,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;John&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Great question.&amp;nbsp; There needs to be a better way of retrieving this data, but as far as I know, it is currently a lot of very detailed work.&amp;nbsp; I believe you will find the best available options for getting this data from the following other posts here on this forum:&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;A href="https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/inventor-customization/determine-scale-of-the-drawingdimension-s-parent-drawingview/m-p/9491149" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/inventor-customization/determine-scale-of-the-drawingdimension-s-parent-drawingview/m-p/9491149&lt;/A&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;&lt;A href="https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/inventor-customization/drawingviews-and-drawingdimensions/m-p/2324524" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/inventor-customization/drawingviews-and-drawingdimensions/m-p/2324524&lt;/A&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I think this issue would be an excellent candidate for a post on the &lt;A href="https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/inventor-ideas/idb-p/v1232" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Inventor Ideas forum&lt;/A&gt;.&amp;nbsp; Seems like a common enough issue to have been mentioned there before, but I didn't find any obvious links related to this specific issue already in the Ideas forum.&amp;nbsp; It would be great if the DrawingDimension object had a direct Method or Property that would return which drawing view it is being used in.&amp;nbsp; I know there is a manual method in the UI right-click menu when you have a dimension selected that will allow you to "Move Dimension", and lets you select another DrawingView to move it to, so you'd think it would 'know' which view it is 'assigned to'.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;

      <description>&lt;P&gt;another messy way i have thought of would be to:&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;1. get all the dimensions on the sheet&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;2. delete the view&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;3. compare to see what dimensions have dissapeared&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;4. undo deleting the view&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;very messy indeed but might work?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;thanks again,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;John&lt;/P&gt;</description>
