    Issues adding dimensions to an assembly

    I do have the PMI option and when I add dimension using it I get some strange results I suppose I have some incorrect settings? Any advice on how to fix this? (see attached png file) http://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=64054add-4fab-4f10-bf9f-aeea4f555b0f&file=dimension_issue.PNG

    Issues adding dimensions to an assembly

    I have a basic assemble made from about 12 part files. I would like to dimension it to show it off as a prototype, but I am not sure how since my extension lines take on some odd angles. Can someone clarify this process? Thanks.

    NX5 - Reducing the number of Views (aux views)

    I am not creating a drawing, just a 2D model but I think my settings are such that multiple view are on as default, and my text is automatically inserted into a paper space/drawing space or what ever its called in UGS; I will check my user options and see if I can turn off certain views.
