      I read but have unable to find a tip about adding info to an associative dimension which doesn't interfere with the associativity.

      It doesn't seem to be to enclose them with either '(info)' or '[info]'.

        I'm not sure its possible. Though I might not be a completely reliable source as I never use dimensions.

          Thanks.

          I may well be confusing another text thing with this, perhaps regarding the automatic text input for groups or components.

            Hi folks.

            This is easy, and covered in the help.

            After inserting a dimension, edit the text. Type whatever you want and use these two brackets <> as a place holder for the dimension itself.

            The brackets can be anywhere in the text (beginning, middle, end). It is important that there is no text or space between the brackets.

            Just ideas.

                Thanks, Jean.

                Since it took me two tries to get it, I post this pic.

                Red is broken assoc dim; success in black is edited as shown.

                  Cool!

                  This doesn't appear to work in LayOut...
