    Trying to dimension the angle of a cone shape in the front view of my
    drawing file. Smart dimension will not let me do it. Anyone know a way
    around this?

    Try sketching lines and adding relations on the cone in the drawing,
    then use smart dimension on those lines to create your angle.

    Best of Luck !

    Best way to do this is to create the sketch in the part, show the
    sketch in the drawing, and then dimension to it. After hide the sketch
    again.

    Using smart dimension you can pick three points to place an angle
    dimension.
