I am currently using AutoCAD 2010. I'm placing some length dimensions on partial sections of a circle and the arc dimension comes straight out from the chosen points as a dimension of a flat line does. I would like it to look like an angular dimension without having to use a text override. Is there any way to change that to where the placed dimension lines follows the edges of the section instead of coming straight out?

Unfortunately, this is the default behavior for arcs less than 90 degrees, and I'm not aware of any way change it other than DIMANGULAR with a text override, as you've already mentioned.
