Changing Axis for Dimension

Sagetech

Typically use linear dimensions. This time I want to specify some features and want to use datum dimensions. I can get the dimensions in the X Axis direction - but can not get any in the Y Axis. Seems to be stuck on the X Axis and I can't figure out how to switch between axis. Tried RMB - no option, looked thru dimension environment parameters - no help there either.

What am I missing?

    Well what do you know............ There is the answer, right in front of my eyes (and slightly to the right). How embarrassing - oh well,  not the first time.

    I can select X or Y and I get the result I'm looking for. Selecting "BOTH" still only gives me one axis but I can deal with that.

    I'm used to doing ordinate dimensioning in ACAD and it automatically goes with the Axis the cursor is being moved in.

    Thank you for your help.
