[CMM] Cannot migrate specific drawing dimesion. Description of problem:

Drawing dimension does not migrate correctly to NX.

How to reproduce the problem:

  1. Import the attached package file.

  2. Review the drawing in I-deas and notice that the dimension has the text below the dimension line.

  3. Migrate the drawing to NX.

  4. There is a note in the migration report about the dimension not being the same but it doesn't list these types of dimensions as not supported by CMM. If you open the drawing in NX, you will notcie that the dimension text is now in the center of the dimension line.

Workaround:

none - it may be that this type of dimension is not possible in NX. If this dimension type is not supported in NX, this needs to be stated in the migration report.
