Have you tried adding dimensions in your sketch elements (circle dradius) that have labels?

Yes, i dit it. The problem is that the vertex has to be constrained. I've tried to add radial dimension to three circle, but there are some proble. I would that both the radius, and the distance from all the three circle is parametric, so when i've decrease the radius, the circles move through my blend base form. The ideal thing is to constraint the arch to the opposite vertex, but...

(sorry for my poor english...)

Check this model and watch the video:http://screencast.com/t/MIkAMihZtf

 

Create a Polygon (use always ref. lines not model lines) with 3 sides and PIN that, then create the circles and PIN that again, create the radius dimensions and create a label for that (radius parameter), now create 3 arcs (ref. lines again) and create dimensions and change that to the label you created before, select the 3 arcs and create form, done.

Hope this help with your model
