Truss/Tag Issues: Showing incorrect length

I need to adjust how my label is dimensioning my top bearing trusses. I need the length to pick up the overall length to include the top bearing extensions. You can see that the dimension of RT04 (bottom bearing) is end to end, but RT05 (top bearing) does not include the top chord extensions. 

 

Does anyone have any tips on how I could re-label these with a different parameter? Or if there is a way to adjust the length that the label is pulling from? Or if I need to edit the Truss and its embedded parameters? I would also take recommendations on other ways to model my top bearing trusses (although truss maker is proving cumbersome).
