How do I draw dimension lines?

 

I have been away from CAD for years and can not remember how to draw dimension lines. When I try the line just disappears. I have the CAD manual and a Dummies manual but I am having no luck.

Your dimensions may be defaulting to a layer which is not on, or your current layer is off. Go to the layer manager and turn on all layers to check first.

Max! You are a freaking genious!! That fixed the problem! Woohoo! Now I have 10,000 dim measurements that just popped up on my screen! LOL! That's OK. I'll just close the file without saving and reopen it and draw just the ones that I need. I need to find out what layer the dim lines are on but for the moment this should keep the boss happy.

Its not genius, just a decade of making silly mistakes and then slapping myself until I remember them.

 

And its just rain down in this part of PA today, thank goodness.
