Is there a way to make the dimension leader side automatic in sketcher (NX4)? In other words, NX knows which side to place the leader on a dimension based on where I place the dimension.

I find it annoying to have the leader line through the dimension and get tired of selecting dimensions and changing their style.

No, there is no way to automatically place the leader side while in the sketcher. Contrary to the way it may appear, the Sketcher does NOT use the exact same code to create constraint dimensions as drafting uses to create drawing dimensions.
