Fore Shortened Dimensions in Detail Views

I would like a way to shorten diameter dimensions in detail views. In my detail views, the diameter dimensions show up full size (i.e they go way off the page). I'd like to shorten them (foreshorten them or terminate them with a double arrow head, etc.). I would upload a pic but that doesn't seem possible at mcad central at the moment. Any help is appreciated.
 
Go through following steps to solve problem:


After putting diameter dimension in detail view, click on dimension & go to Leaders option. In that option, click on Radius & Foreshortened commands. Then again click on diameter command.
