Right-click on a layout sheet and select "show as trace reference".

skukadia, you should check out the many tutorial videos posted on YouTube.

Have you placed any dimensions with the dimension tool as Stuart suggested?
If you are asking how to place the dimensions then there is plenty of information in the manual and tutorials - all can be found in the HELP menu.
