Hi there Revit Fans!

I'm working in RAC 2011 and am dimensioning a reflected ceiling plan with some curved soffits.  All the linear and aligned dimensions display just fine, and yesterday morning I was able to create radial dimensions that displayed.  Today, when I attempt to place a radial dimension I get the error message about it not being able to display in the view and to check my settings.  My VG settings are all fine, and the dimensions aren't hidden in view because I can still see them all. 

Any ideas about what might be going on here?  It's Saturday and I'm losing my patience on this one.  Might be time to go home.

As always, any tips, pointers, hints and help are greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Revit 2020. I am having the same problem.  What settings to look for?

Update: the center of the radius was outside the crop view.  Is there a way to show a short arrow with the unit length without having to extend to center of radius?

Untick ‘center marks’ in dimension type properties and pull blue grip dot towards the object.
