MODEL ORIENTATION AFFECTS DRAWING DIMENSIONS

Guys,

I have issue with drawing dimensions.

I have part which has specific orientation is space. I'm making drawing out of it using custom view orientation.
It seems if model projected in custom view, IV does not understand this projection on the drawing and cannot project dimensions same way. Any way to fix this?

Dimension is placed respecting original orientation, but not the custom one.

You did not show screenshots of setting for True Dimension or Projected Dimensions.

Can you Attach your files here?

@JDMather 
I think you mean this setting. This worked. Thanks for a tip.

Confusing that IV by default would not switch to projected dimensions, since its obvious if I did custom projected view, dimensions should follow.
