    Very nice. Do you also know, you can dimension as diameter value; you have a radius 5.5mm I would dimension the 11mm at the sketch, when in smart dimension select the centreline and the outer line, if you place the dim on the sketch side of centre you can input the rad and if you place on the other side of centre you can input diameter dim. Only works with dim at the centreline not the end point of the centreline.

      ""if you place the dim on the sketch side of centre you can input the rad and if you place on the other side of centre you can input diameter dim.""

      It does not necessarily have to be a radius/diameter dim. Any dim with a centerline will work this way
