When the feature is inside the FM column, double clicking is showing the dimension of the feature. When it is outside, double clicking is not showing the dimension of the feature in my one. What is reason for that?
But in the YouTube video it is showing as well.

Not exactly sure....I just think that it was designed that way.

Double click not there....
Dan is right that double click does not show dimensions on features from the flyout FeatureManager tree. However, when making a linear pattern, if you first select the Features to Pattern field, and pick the extrude, the dimensions of the extrude that you have selected to pattern will show on the screen along with the selected feature highlighting. Then you can select the dimension to define the direction after selecting the feature.
I hope this helps,
Jim
With some tools you can use flyout FMT, with some tools you can’t use this is what confusing me.
