To dimension to a virtual sharp, you need to first insert a virtual sharp onto the model. On the drawing where you would like the "virtual sharp" point to be inserted. CTRL-select the two edges which would intersect if allowed to extend. Once the two edges are selected, hit the "Point" toolbar button, and a virtual sharp will be created at the intersection. The user can control the display of the virtual sharp by setting the option found in Tools, Options, Detailing, Virtual Sharp. The user will then be able to create dimensions to the virtual sharp.
