AutoCAD 2010-Dimensions not showing in Layouts

Issue:
I can draw dimensions in model space but they won't show up in layouts. The layers are all correct and on but still I can't see the dims.

Answer:

Click on the 'trillium button with a light bulb'. This will turn objects from all scales on or off. You could also type the Variable name: ANNOALLVISIBLE. Then switch it on or off.
