Message definition (Draft FlipDimension)
The [[Image:Draft_FlipDimension.svg|24px]] '''Draft FlipDimension''' command rotates the dimension text of selected [[Draft_Dimension|Draft Dimensions]] 180° around the dimension line. It can be used to correct dimensions whose text appears mirrored. The command does not work properly for angular dimensions.

Description

When in 2D mode, the text of the Draft dimensions is displayed aligned to the dimension line. The Dimension tool always tries to show you the dimension text on the correct side of the dimension line, depending on where you are viewing it from. In some cases, though, the viewing direction might not reflect the intent of the viewer, and the orientation of the dimension text might be inverted. This tool inverts that orientation on selected dimension objects.
