no, it is not in perspective view. the concerning part of my drawing is the picture i send with my question, it is just a normal view. I can not select edges in Detail E (they also won't highlight) for dimensioning these while in Section D-D i do can select them. perhaps dimensioning a Detail view from a Section view is not possible?? or must i change a setup somewhere in the system options to make these edges selectable? i looked over everything but i can not find a solution. please can you give me some advise.
I'm not aware of any setting, or anything else, that would prevent you from selecting edges in the detail view. The only thing I can think of would be a problem with your graphics card, but although graphic card problems can cause a wide variety of issues this seems strange. You might check Why am I getting weird graphics issues? just to be sure, particularly the part about "software open GL" to see if that will help, but I'm not optimistic.
Have you tried switching that view to a different display style to see if that will fix it?
It is possible, we do it, though it is not recommended practices. I have seen this behavior before but I don't recall what I did to fix this.
Have you tried restarting your SolidWorks?
Do you use dynamic highlight? It might help you.
Can you sketch over the entities?
Try double clicking on the detail view E-E and then doing your dimensions. I'm guessing perhaps it's trying to dimension on the view next to the detail instead of inside detail E-E.
is it in perspective view? Dynamic highlighting won't work under these circumstances.
