Flip Dimension Arrows

When dimensioning, the dimension arrows will automatically point either inwards or outwards, depending on the positioning of the dimension text. In some cases, where the dimension line is very short and the dimension is positioned in the middle, the arrows may be very close to each other. In such a situation, it may be difficult to determine whether the arrows point outwards or inwards. This function can be used to force the dimension arrows to flip around.
