    There are times when a dimension's text gets hidden by other text or a Door Identification Symbol, and I will move the dimension text to make it more legible. Then later, I may want to add a lower line to the text, with the "\X", but, now both lines will now appear above the dimension line. Is there a way to reset the text back to its default location?

    Tom, Thanks so very much. These options that seem to cover every possible option proves again that AutoCAD is worth the money one pays for it. Read Ya Later -KLYPH

    A lot of people who were used to right click = return really hate the
    context menus, but there are many cases, like this, where they're by far the
    easiest way to do a lot of different things.

    And if you're on 2004... there's a time-sensitive right-click. Less than a
    quarter-second click does an <Enter>, slightly longer gets you the shortcut
    menus. This is one of the best new features of 2004.

    Good point, Dave. It works very nicely. That's the leverage I'm going to use
    to force the last of our return-clickers to stop defeating the context
    menus.
