If you just need to do this occassionally, place the dim, click on the dim once, right click, reverse arrow, repeat for other arrow.

Came: I dont think you understand my question. Using a new dim doesnt seem to work in my case.

rkent: could you please be more detailed. cos am using the japanese version and have prob understanding the names. Does that reverse have any shortcut?

When you click on the dim, and right mouse button, it is called Flip Arrow. I tried to attach a little video but it was too large.

GeeN try to put bigger value for your DIMGAP (consult Autocad Help).

I have the same problem. My dimension is too small and instead of the arrows being inside it like they normally are, they are placed outside the dimension.
