Solidworks 2008 Dimensioning Tips

Solidworks 2008 will offer up some new dimensioning tools to make life easier.  The first is easily adjustable leader lines:

Stretch_bent_leader By grabbing the arrows on the horizontal line, you can stretch or compress the length of the leader.

The second tip has to do with the properties of the dimension you place:

Dim_menu By right clicking the menu, then selecting Display Options, you can quickly choose to set it as an inspection dimension, show parentheses, radius or diameter etc, all without having to go to the feature manager, click more properties, then select what you want from the new window.

So just a couple of new tips that can be found in Solidworks 2008 Drawings.
