I looked through the forum and saw where someone posted the same problem back in 2014. at that time there was no solution.
it may be possible now but I did not see the answer.
when you are making a drawing and you have a centerline going the length of your part, you add a dimension. the centerline goes right through it. how can you break it?
I try to use different horizontal lines to put a centerline in but sometimes I don't have that luxury. i'm not a fan of moving dimensions around, like everything to look neat.

Hello @Anonymous there's no way to break the automatically generated Centerline Bisector into multiple centerline segments.
There are a few workarounds that require a bit more work.
I was hoping to create a Sketch Symbol with Symbol Clipping turned on, but after testing it doesn't trim the centerline, just the dimension lines:
You can create a Sketch on the view and draw in your own multi segment centerlines and change the Properties... > Line Type.
If you have a good example to share maybe we can come up with something a bit better.
