Annotative Model Space Dimensions on VIEWBASE generated layout views

Hi!

So I have my 3D model done, and I used the "Generate Drawing Views" button (VIEWBASE command) to place some scaled views of different components into several Layout tabs. I would like to put my dimensions in model space (less chance they read incorrectly), and use the annotative scaling feature to make them display nicely in paper space. However, in the layout tab, when I double click inside the viewport and then place my dimension using the snaps on the generated view, it doesn't display in the viewport. If I click back to the model tab the dimension is there, just off in the distance ~1200 units away from the model. How come the dimensions will not display in the layout tab viewport?

I've gotten model space dimensions to display annotatively before with the VPORT command. Does this not work with these "Base Views?"
