Adding 3 pictures to show what I mean

Hi Yahavsa,

I haven't tried it myself, but I took a look if it's possible at all.
There is a list of API_DimElem entries in the memo of dimension elements. (See API_Element_GetMemo docs)

Each API_DimElem has a API_NoteType member. There you can change some text which I think might be the place where you can change the dimensions text.


Let us know if that's successful in case you try it! 🙂
