Add "Dimension Origin" to the Level Dim. Settings

Page 1675 of the AC20 Reference Guide states:
"The origin from which Level Dimension values are calculated is set in Level Dimension Tool Settings."
Yet, this setting DOES NOT exist.

Please add the setting (as shown in the linear dimension settings) or allow us to change the default.

This is not only essential, It's one of those "My mind is blown away. How wasnt this BASIC feature implemented from the very beginning?" Essential.

I'm not a software guy, but it is my intuition that fixing this, like many many other things that could be improved, is actually not that difficult within the context of archicads probably monumental source code, basically because you can already do this with the level texto, but manually, so the code is already there.

In a building analogy, i think fixing this would be like moving 10 walls, 10 Windows and 3 doors, in a 50,000m2 building model. Mildly annoying, but doable very fast in the context of the building.

Please correct me if i'm wrong in this appreciation

Thanks for reminding me Galiaf.  I missed the anniversary.
