Showing Dims Automatically in Drawing Mode?

[a0r0t]

When creating a New Drawing, can one automatically have SW (2004) display/show the dimensions (used to create the part) on the drawing without having to use "Insert Model Items"?

Thanks!

I do have that option checked? Am I missing something else?

Thanks!

When creating dimensions in part sketches, you can specify whether the dimension should be included when inserting model dimensions into drawings. Right-click the dimension and select Mark for drawing. You can also specify that dimensions marked for drawings be inserted automatically into new drawing views. Click Tools, Options, Document Properties, Detailing and select Dimensions marked fordrawings under Auto insert on view creation.
