Jogged Dimension in Inventor 2012

By Luke Davenport

There is no jogged dimension option built into Inventor. However you can use some cunning view sketching to give an effective associative jogged dimension as shown in this video - until Autodesk include it as standard. Of course as an alternative to making the text white you could save yourself some time and simply hide the dimension value and use a ‘space’ for the dimension text!
