Cant Dimension horizontally in section view

Hello all, I am running into a little issue here hope someone can help me.

 

I have a section view that is giving me a problem... I cannot dimension horizontally in section view it won’t let me. I believe the section is not is not completely orthogonal. The view looks perfect to me, everything looks plumb and non of the lines are skewed. The section line on the plan is also 90 degrees plumb, but when I highlight the section the flip section button is not strength, it’s on an angle… (please take a look at the image I attached)  

 

I know if I recreate the section it will fix the problem but unfortunately there are allot of annotation work and section callouts and dependents associated with the section. I do not want to redo all that work did just to be able to dimension stuff....

 

Is the a way to fix my section so I can dimension ?

Hello, try to set your view plane in your section view if this help. Check your visibility graphics if your dimension is untick or reveal hidden elements. There should be error message in your left bottom screen when you do the dimension, post that too. Thanks
