AFAIK, it hasn't changed much since AC7.0. Right now, as it has been in the past, the dimension indicator symbols are hard-coded (not customizable

Or, am I not understanding your post?

You are right that you need to make your own level dimension markers with the object tool. The good news is that you can make them better than the Level Dimensioning tool does. I made one that changes its appearance according to whether it is used in plan or section. It automatically picks up the elevation above project zero in section and it displays the z-height in plan (allowing auto slab, roof and mesh spot elevations using the gravity feature). The only limitation is that they can't be linked to other model elements so they have to be manually updated when things change.
If you like (and any others of course) I can e-mail you the part to adapt to your own needs.

I don't know how to use the gravity feature in my level dimension marker. Would you like to tell me about it?

In elevation use SYMB_POS_Y since the elevaton window is a 2D view using x and y axes. This global will always return the height above the project zero (it is not affected by moving the origin). The jpeg also shows the same library part used in section.
