View Dimensions

When I as to View Dimensions of a feature (extrusion) all I get is the sketch dimension, not the extrusion length.

Am I missing something?

    Yes, you are correct. At this point of time only sketch dimensions are shown but I guess provision of showing the extrusion length is also one of the improvement from the Onshape's list of priorities.

    @gerald_friedman
    Are you after screenshots with dimension or just wan't to know some measure/distance?

    I have asked for advanced 'named views' with possibility to add visible dimension since I would need to share these images. But if you just wan't to check some dimension, click any edge and see the measure in bottom right - click another instance and you will get distance and other measurement info.

    Gentlemen,

    When asking to show dimensions one also has the opportunity to select a dimension and revise it, although when selecting the dimension you are brought back to the sketch and have to re-select the dimension to revise.

    Without being able to see the extrusion dimension I have to go back to the extrusion in the feature list to bring up the dialogue box.

    I feel this is a bit cumbersome.

    I'd rather be able to revise on the model. Would be much quicker.
