edit sketch.


it wont do it for the entire solid piece. you'll have to go plane by plane. editing whichever sketch you want to check.

^^that's how you do it in a part file

i'm talking about a drawing file (the multiview). you put the views up there and there's some command that just plops the dimensions up there. then you just neaten them up and you're done.
