I'm dimensioning a Jog in a sheet metal feature, and the dimensions are
displayed in a yellow color. How can I change this? I searched
through the help and tried to change options under system properties,
colors, but I can't find the correct option. Does anybody know how to
do this? Is there a button I can locate on the toolbar to change the
color like the annotation color button?

I do it this way ( because i make a dwg copy of the drawing):

Select all the dimensions you want changed, open the layer toolbar,
click on layer properties, click new.
now you can pick a color and linetypes you want .
When your ready, click move and all the selected dimensions change color.

Best regards,
Bram

Thanks, but this hasn't worked. I think there might be a bug or
something causing this. It seems to be doing it in all my drawings
now. arrgh!! I'm hoping that my reseller can help me. Any body out
there have any ideas?

There appeared to be a bug, and the color preferences had changed, but
the actual color was not being displayed in the dialogue. To fix this
problem, save the scheme, select reset all in the system properties
dialogue, then load the scheme, or change it manually.
