Moving the dimension text in the drawing automatically - Inventor 2014

First of all, hello to you guys as this is my first post here on this forum;)

I have a question about formatting the dimension text so it would show up at far right near the arrow (like in the marked area below). This counts for all dimensions in the drawing.

I know we can drag the dimension text manually, but is there an option to do this automatically? Maybe change something in the dimension style? Or is it not possible/use some iLogic? Some of the CNC guys prefer it that way (as it makes our drawings easier to read), but without automatization this could be more trouble than it's worth.

 Thanks for any information!

Hello and welcome to the community!

 

Are you looking for dimensions to automatically position themselves to the right on creation? Or move the position of existing dimensions?

Honestly, if it's possible it could be done either way - of course, if it's done on creation then one less button to click for us 😉
