Measurement text (dimension) format

[Orijohnal]

The measurement tool works great but I can't figure out how to alter the attributes of the dimension text.  I understand how to format the lines, arrows, etc. but the text itself often gets lost in the background and needs size or color adjustment to be visible.   Any ideas?

Hello @Orijohnal,

Thank you for posting on our Community Forums!

The measurement text is not as flexible at the moment. I suggest using the Type text tool as well if you are unable to get the desired results using just the measurement text.

Hope that helps!

Thanks, Leslie.  So the procedure would be to add the dimension, note the scaled measurement before deleting it from the measurement object, then add it back with the Text Tool.  Is that the best approach for now?

Yes that is a good workaround.
