horizontal, parallel_outside, horizontal_outside, parallel_above, parallel_fully_outside
controls the placement of angular dimensions in drawings. if set to M-^Shorizontal,- displays text of angular dimensions horizontally at all times, centered between the leaders (equivalent to the value M-^Shorizontal- for the drawing setup file option M-^Stext_orientation- ). if set to M-^Sparallel_outside,- displays text parallel to the leader lines, regardless of their orientation (equivalent to the value M-^Sparallel- for the drawing setup file option M-^Stext_orientation- ). if set to M-^Shorizontal_outside,- displays text horizontally outside the dimension. if set to M-^Sparallel_above,- displays text parallel to the dimension arc, but above it. if set to M-^Sparallel_fully_outside,- displays text of angular dimensions (with a plus/minus tolerance) parallel to the leader lines. for more information and an illustration, see how to display dimension text symbols on page 6 - 38.
