i suspect that this is something that has gone unnoticed. i certainly have not seen it before now.. not a big deal, more annoying than anything and just a note for the devs to look at some point in the future,
this drawing was migrated up from 2015 and switched over to use a new dim style / standard.
any new dimensions added to he drawing work just fine when using rmb > arrange dimensions. however, if there is a dimension that was pre-existing that is part of the selected group of dimensions being "arranged" then inventor sees this and makes note to the user that there is a different standard dim offset being used, and that it will use the currect standard to continue the arrangement...
that is fine & nice to know, but immediately after choosing ok, the dimensions are all snapped into position, bundled up on top of one another and the command is terminated. there is no opportunity to actually 'arrange' anything.
i think the fact that this circumstance would be encountered so infrequently, it would be easy to overlook that the sequence is not completed as you would expect it to.
i attempted to resolve this by consolidating dims to the new style and saw:
if you highlight any or all dimensions and tell inventor to make them the current standard, it makes no difference if you want to arrrange them in this manner.
refresh / update styles etc = no change.
if you add some new dimensions and copy thier properties to the pre existing dims it makes no difference.
if you choose just one of any of the pre existing or new dimensions, all behaves as you would expect when doing thie arrange, but there is not much point when you only have one dimension being manipulated, however when in this mode you can see that the default offsets being used between the various old or new dimension have been maintained in thier original settings.
the only outcome i can see is to add new dims and delete old ones, if you wanted to use the arrange command.
seen this on pdsu - inv 2016 update2, 64bit windows 8.1
all the best keep up the good work.
