How do I change the settings on Inventor so I can have a tail on the dimension like this and not just a straight line

You have to spend some time playing with Stiles.

Hi! Yes, as Igor indicated, this can be done in Dimensional Style. Right-click on the Chamfer Note -> Edit Dim Style -> select Chamfer Note Settings -> General Settings -> select the appropriate setting in Leader Text Alignment and Leader Text Orientation.

After you make the change, you will need to save it back to the Style Library or make it a unique style (in the template) not available in Style Library.

Many thanks!
