I have a feeling I'm not using the best practice here...
Occasionally I will save a copy of a drawing and then insert another model into it to create a multi-part print. But if I delete one of the views within the copy the changes are reflected in the original drawing and the dimensions will disappear.
I then tried changing the config option "create_drawing_dim_only" to yes. Now I get the message "when creating drawing dims only, model baselines may not be used" when trying to make ordinate dimensions. This makes sense but I really like to use the "model annotations" dimensions as they seem more stable so I may switch that config option back to no
Is there a best practice? I do copy drawings occasionally and don't want to have to redo all the dimensions in the original drawing every time something is changed in the copied drawing.
Thanks
Nolan
