How To Line Up Dimensions That Are Side By Side

[TorsionalStress]

Using Catia V5R18;

What is the procedure to allow two dimensions that are side by side each other, become in-line with each other?

Any response will be greatly appreciated!

Right click on the dimension to move. Select 'Line-Up'. Select the dimension to align with. Set 'Offset to Reference' value to 0. Accept.

With snap mode ON, I've had success while creating the dimension by dragging it OVER the adjacent dim to which I wish to align it, watching for the cursor to change to a solid center. I then click once and can then drag the dimension text to where I want it.
