Why won't Catia play nice with GD&T? - Getting the datum to stick where I want it.

[Tarthrin]

I can't get CATIA to put the datum leader where it should go.

Please take a look at the attached picture. The left side is what I am trying to get with the datum leader attached to the dimension. When I click on the dimension to place the leader it just goes to the edge of the circle (right side).

Looks like you're using the ISO drafting standard; I'd try the ANSI or ASME standard and see if that makes a difference. (just a wild guess)

(I'm using V5R21, and I can put the datums wherever)
