      Great guys. I'll play around with it at work today and report any new findings.
      Thanks!

        it's an oversight. ARROWS OUTSIDE should be a DIM option too.

          An "oversight"?

          Yes, I would like that option myself.

            IDK why. Such view options seem obvious in a dimension tool. They just didn't get around to it.

              True. There seem to be quite a few options for dimensions that would be nice to have. Fingers crossed for the next version.

                It seems if they had put as much effort into the dim settings as they did the text settings, we'd be good to go. But hey, at least theres any settings at all unlike sketchup. Now we're talkin apples, oranges and gripes. Heh, get it

                  Got it!

                  I'm sure these things will come. Remember, LayOut is still a young product.

                    True that. I can't imagine being a developer at SU/LO. Everyone want/needs 10 different things for 50 different types of work. A full blown autodesk monstrosity is on the way if we ask for too much I'm afraid

                      Agreed. I would prefer it if they both remain simple and easy to use.

                      I wouldn't want to have to be one of those folks who decide what features will and which ones won't be included.

                        It would be pretty neat if they did put together slightly different versions with each one leaning towards a different usage, ie. construction drawings, or conceptual drawings, etc. Maybe even offer a Lite version and an "AutoDesk-esque " version if you will with all the bells and whistles
