Edit length of dimension
Is there a way to edit a ruler ("dimension") to the size I need it to be?
For walls for instance I can edit the wall and enter the length. For dimensions, all I found was to drag it as long as I need it to be. But often it ends up showing 3 decimals, and since the text is in the middle, in case of a long dimension I cannot even zoom in far enough to fine-tune, because the text is no longer in my screen.
It would be nice if I could right click, modify, and enter the exact size. Or if this is already possible and I just didn't find how to do it, I would appreciate some help.
I would need this to draw the perimeter of the property around the house.

You have to read this: this and/or this

Re: Edit length of dimension
The version 7.2 now includes a dialog box which lets you modify start and end points of a dimension as well as other parameters.
