This may be a stupid question. I have drawn up a part and I am now creating a drawing for it. I have an outer edge which has been created using a circle and then trimmed where needed. I am trying to put the diamenter dimension in, but when doing so, it creates a semi circle that looks confusing on the diagram. How do i prevent it or remove the circle from appearing and just have a simple arrowed dimension, similar to a radius.

Hope you can help

Regards

Try edit the Style of the Diameter Dimension -> Dimension Tab (Style Menu) -> disable "Display Extension Line on Side 1 and 2" (the 2 vertical Lines).

Try using the dimension type "Hole" instead of "Diameter", the Visual difference is one arrow instead of two.
