Dimension tool not sensing SU model within LO

Hi,

Has anyone ever had the dimension tool simply not sense the SU model, and won't lock into the vertex.  So I have to guess the exact vertex and then drag to the next.  This is not working out so well.  I tried to move my model to the front, making sure nothing is covering the layer.  I haven't had this issue before as I recall.  Unfortunately at a standstill with this drawing.  I'm sure it is something simple I'm missing...thanks,

OK, the cases I can think of:

You turned off Object Snap. Arrange->Object Snap.
We had an old bug that if you got a center inference, you'd lose the ability to get any inferences after that. That bug was fixed in the current versions of LayOut: 3.0.4010(Mac) 4811(PC).

Anyone else? It's definitely not an image?

One other issue is getting an edge through a section cut, but that doesn't sound like your concern? If it is, search this forum for the answer.
