Goddammit..
Is there any way of adjusting dimensions with any level of efficiency?? All dimensions I draw are fixed forever. I cannot adjust one dimension to reflect one change. If I change something which is expressed on a string of dimensions I have to redraw the entire string... retarded? YES!

Also, if I drag the dimensions out to give myself a little more room I find that I can drag them anywhere, not just parallel to the line I drew them. Obviously this means that I can mistakenly shift the entire string of dimensions away from what I'm dimensioning so as to make them all inaccurate. This has got to be the stupidest architectural tool I have ever used. (dimensions, but also <b>[censored]</b> archicad)
Thanks.

What I would really prefer would be if dimensions were not associated with elements. Is there any way to do this?
