      Is there a way of offsetting the dimension line further from the object.
      I have tried selecting the dimension and scaling it away using the arrows,
      but the dimensions tend to change when i do that.


      Actual dimensions


      Selected dimensions


      Dimensions changed after move

        You can manually edit all dimensions. There could be two ways (the first one is rather cumbersome)

        Offset1.png
        The second one would be more straightforward:

        Offset2.png
        and after setting it, you can sample its style and apply it to all your other dimensions (even better; save it to your scrapbook and you can sample > apply it any time in other documents as well)

          This should be able to be set as a default don't you think?

            Well, as I do not use LO "professionally" (unless posting in the forums is a "profession"), I do not have my own templates with all the bells and whistles but I am pretty sure it could be done with a custom template.

            However let's hope that in some upcoming, new version in the future this will be made easier.

                LayOut 3 out today... it's there. We added a point to the line - there's now a connection point and an offset point.

                  (I remember last time a painful workaround and png printing issue and when LO 2 came out, you were the first to suggest that png outpuit was then already available)
