Turning off auto-dimensioning when placing base view in a drawing-Inventor 2019

Hi, when I place a base view of a model into a new drawing the dimensions are placed automatically even though I don't want them to be, yet I don't have the 'All model dimensions' box ticked.

The only workaround I have found is to tick the box, un-tick it and place the view but surely this isn't correct?

Am I missing something? 

Thanks in advance

Hi! I bet you have the following option checked.

 

Tools -> Application Options -> Drawing -> "Retrieve all model dimensions on view placement" at the top.

 

Uncheck it and the dimensions will not be retrieved automatically.

Many thanks!
