Hi, perhaps this is more like a Feature Request, but I´m not sure!
Is it possible to rotate Dimensions displayed by length constraints (also angles) with the view?
When I rotate the view 180 degrees the dimensions are displayed upside down, it would be really great if they follow the current views orientation!
Here an example attached!

I don't know of such an option, so it would be indeed a new feature. I had it a couple of times the situation where I had to turn a sketch into its "natural" orientation. It would have been useful to have such an option.

Re: Rotate Dimensions (Datums) with the view in sketcher
The normal flip in text orientation occurs around 15 deg counterclockwise from sketch vertical axis. There probably is some convention about that 15 deg (technical drawing standarts?). If this could be changed to the vertical view axis instead if vertical sketch axis this should work fine?
