Did you check your DIMSTYLE settings?
Are you using either one of these options: Baseline / Continue? Are you dimensioning in model space or in a paper space layout? Is the dimensioning annotative? Edited by John Connor - 18.Dec.2014 at 20:28 |

Did you check your DIMSTYLE settings? not sure what I'd look for
Are you using either one of these options: Baseline / Continue?doesn't seem to matter which I use Are you dimensioning in model space or in a paper space layout?model Is the dimensioning annotative? ??? not sure. I go to options,etc DESELECT make new dimension annotative, run dimensions, go back to options, and its selected again. ( yes I hit apply and ok) fyi I am using a dimension layout I brought over from 2012. also, I am new to 2015 and it seems to be quite a jump from 2012 all I get is a weird little white "+" when I get near existing dimension

I can't figure it out based solely on your description. Upload a copy of the actual drawing file so we can have a look at it ourselves.

You don't happen to have constraints enabled do you?
I see you are located in the United States. Where exactly? At this rate it will be 2015 before the problem gets resolved. Edited by John Connor - 31.Dec.2014 at 11:56 |

I don't have constraints on.... I think.... no locks appear and the two dimensions are the dimension from the button with the lightning bolt on it.
Reading, PA agreed, this might be awhile
