similar to this (I hope it posts well). If you have a tappered cutout and the angle is very small, I need to detail the bottom (narrowest) part. If i do this with a normal dimension the extension lines cover the object lines and it makes it look like they are pointing to the top of the angle. Is this possible without haveing to draw little lines, dimension and then override the dim text.
