User has a case where he has vertical and Cylindrical dimension on the left

dragged to be above the Extension line, a Stub is added to the leader and 
placed on the Left side of the dimension.



Solution

 Select the dimension --> RMB --> Style.


Go to the Dimensions tab --> change the Dimension Text Orientation List from 
Horizontal to Perpendicular --> Apply.


The dimension will now display with No Stub and be centered above the end point


of the leader line.
