Autoscale-on-first-dimension does not handle angular dimensions properly

This isn't really a bug, just a suboptimal implementation detail...

To be clear, the feature I'm referring to is the one that rescales an entire sketch based on the first dimension that you add. So if you sketch out the general plan of a part and then add a dimension, the elements of the sketch remain in proportion. (There is also a visual "fit" that goes on, but that's not really relevant here.)

My grip: If the first dimension you add is an angular dimension, this feature does nothing, as it should. However, that angular dimension still counts as the first dimension. If you then add a linear dimension, you don't get autoscaling.

The code that implements this feature should really be triggering on the first LINEAR dimension that you add.

Hello @GRSnyder

Thank you for raising this workflow! I think the expected result you mentioned is reasonable. I have created an improvement ticket for the team to take a look at FUS-86918.
