Editing associative dimensioning

To edit associative dimensioning, you can use almost all familiar tools and the Properties palette. However, you cannot edit associative dimension lines with the following tools: Change Ref Points, Modify Component Height, Additional Text, Split Dimension Line, and Join Dimension Lines.

Note: By clearing the Associative in relation to reference points option in the Properties palette, you turn an associative dimension line into a nonassociative dimension line. This cannot be undone. You must create the dimension line from scratch.
