WF3 purple dims

I have a plate with holes, slots, etc. In wf3 I showed the dims and out of
about 50 dims 8 were purple - just the number. The arrows and witness lines
were the usual yellow. I would assume this is a wf3 trait. I've been on Proe
for 6 yrs and never saw dims like that.

 

Those dims you're refering to are completly purple, witness lines and all.
They are driven dims that lost there reference. By default they stay with
the component model. The dims I see only the actual number is purple and in
each case thay are a driving dim.

 

This is occurring only in the first feature which is sheetmetal first wall.

I don't have a clue really, but thought I'd goat head and ask ...
Have you, by any chance, changed the number of decimals displayed or anything
else? I've noticed a few times shown model dim text changing color to green, I
think, after reducing the number of displayed decimal places. Since yours are
the same color as a dim that's lost it's references I sorta wonder if it's not
telling you the model needs to be regen'd? (Dunno, just guessing. I keep
meanin' to look for some sort of reference that'll tell me what color changes
are supposed to mean ...) Any messages generated if you update the view?
