Hi Folks,

I’m getting terribly distracted by the persistent measurements on my sketch. Makes it difficult to view the lines clearly.

I’ve looked just about everywhere. Is there a way to hide them?

Thanks,

On Ipad, tap the gear above the constraints tools.

Press “X” button and enter “dim” then choose “Always show dimensions” and turn it on or off. That’s how I do that all the time then not in sketching mode. Because sometimes I need them and sometimes they distract me.

On my iPad, I cannot find the option to turn off dimensions. Please help!
