creo9 Drawing Setup option documentation for: WITNESS_LINE_OFFSET            

( (Only MBD) ( (

witness_line_offset

Sets offset between (1) a dimension line and object being dimensioned. It also determines the offset for:
Intersection witness lines of new dimensions.
Intersection witness lines of existing dimensions that are not modified.
The offset may only be visible when you plot a drawing. To see the effect, use the screen plot.
Default and Available Settings:
0.062500* - The default is 0.62500. You can specify a different value for the offset between the dimension line and the object being dimensioned.
* 
The drawing_units Detail option determines the unit of measurement for the witness_line_offset Detail option.
To create intersection witness lines without a gap, specify the offset value as zero.
When you specify an offset value greater than the distance between the end of the intersection entity and the intersection, the length of the intersection witness line becomes zero as shown in the following figure:
