angular dimension placement problem

Hi,

I have problem with angular dimension annotation placement. Perhapps someone can give me some advice.

 

I have to schow small angle on drawing 0,5 deg. I can make a dimesion of this angle but when I try to move its annotation (text) outside this angle so it was on side of extension lines rather than betwwen tehm it autmatically changes from dimensionig this small 0,5deg angle to 179,5 deg. (this I am not interested in).

 

How can I move angular dimension annotation outside of this angle not getting this auto change from referencing angle I want to opossite one?

 

Cris.

Hi Cris,

Try this: place the dimension the way you want it to read, then right click on it and select "Options". In there deselect 'Use Quadrant".

Close the DB. Now you should be able to move the dimension outside.

Cheers,

Igor.
