Graphical Editing of Text Box and Pointer Line
Note: Favorites of the Text tool can be applied to the text-type items in Dimensions and Labels, and to Fill Text.

Once you select a text box, you can change its position and/or orientation using Edit functions (e.g., Drag, Rotate, Mirror).
Note: If the Text box also has a Pointer Line, the Lock Angle control affects the range of graphical editing. If it is ON, the Pointer Line’s starting angle remains fixed, limiting the edit possibilities.
To undo the position changes of all modified dimension text items, go to Document > Annotation and click the Revert All Dimension Text to Automatic Position command.
To reset the position of a selected custom text item, check the Revert to Automatic Position box at the bottom of Dimension Text Settings.
