We are looking for a way to add a descriptor to each dimension value on a drawing. This is for inspection purposes so that we can refer to dimension “C” on the inspection document and it is easily recognizable on the drawing. Is there a way to type in the letter “C” in the Dimension and have it encircled or in a box or in a triangle or whatever?

Add a symbol to the dimension text:
With the dimension selected, click in the text field of the property manager where you’d like the “TAG”. Then click the “More” button immediately below the field and select any of the flag symbols from the library drop down. “Flag Cir A-Z” allows you to select symbols just as you requested. You only have 26 different inspections symbols with letters. I personally use “Flag Squ 1-99″ which gives me 99 inspections.
