Assembly Drawing - Cannot create "zero" (0.00) dimension between parts aligned on the same plane.

I have an assembly drawing of a stack of components. Some of the components need to align on the same plane. On a cross-section, I would like to show that the edges of the two parts can be aligned with some tolerance (i.e. 0.00+/-0.50mm). For the life of me, I cannot create such dimension. I have tried line-to-point, point-to-point, line-to-line and min/max dimension options - to no avail. The ONLY way to create such dimension is to create a small offset in the assembly, then create a dimension on the drawing and then having to go back to the assembly to remove the offset. Voila, the drawing updates and shows 0.00! However, I would like to avoid doing that every time something changes on my assembly.
