dimensioning cad items to centers

[alobartn]

As far as I know you cannot automatically dimension to the center of squares. The easy workaround, and I hope this will change soon, is to draw lines which will snap to the center of the square, and dimension to them. In version 10 the snapping capabilities make this, well, a snap. You can change the colors of the center lines to white and send them to back, and leave them there. It's easy to see them if your screen color is set to something other than white, and they won't print if you print on white paper. I don't have to rotate a circle to dimension to its center.
