I have a cylindrical part that has a spherical radius on the inside, with a groove cut into the spherical radius. I would like to dimension the diameter at the point where the centerline of the groove intersects the spherical radius. (see attached example). Is this possible? I can create the centerline of the groove. But I don't know how or if it's possible to dimension to the imaginary intersection. Is it possible to create a phantom or construction line in an idw?
LMB on the view and press 'sketch'.
Pick and RMB on the spherical radius segments on both sides of the groove
and click Project Edges.
Now make an arc and constrain it as you would in the IPT sketch environment.

Thanks a ton.
I'll give that I try first thing tomorrow.
I guess my question should have been "How do I skecth inside a drawing?"
Every day I learn something that I did not even know I didn't know. 🙂
Sorry or borrow this thread, but I have a related question.
I wanted to create a section view parallel to one of the edges in the drawing. This edge is at an odd angle. So far I have only been able to make it parallel if the section is right on top of the edge. I tried adjusting it in the sketch mode, however I could not project that edge.
A simple example would be projecting one of the sides of a Hexagon from the front view.
To be able to project edges you must click in the view first.
To make a section in an odd angle make a view sketch, project an edge and draw a line parallel to the projected.
RMB on this line and choose Section...

To add on to Peer's answer:
in IDW, you have to RMB and choose DONE to get the selected edges to
actually project.
Is that what's missing?
