Why is Chain/Baseline Dimensions always Horizontal? How do we get it to vertical?
When using the Chain/Baseline dimension tool and picking point to point, after you click the first two points a dimension will appear and the default is in the Horizontal alignment. Hit Tab at this time to adjust between vertical, horizontal and parallel dimension alignments. Then when you click the next point, they will align according to the alignment set.
