Wrappable trailers

[decayny]

Trailers that can wrap text under the dimension dimension line. esp. useful for those short dims.

not sure what this is. you can add text to deminsion strings now in the OIP...

e.g. i sometimes have a dim. where the number fills the full length of the dim. line and i want to add a trailer [which i know how to do] but want the trailer to appear BELOW the dim. line, rather than off to the side. I can just type some text and place it there but it'd be better if the trailer could wrap underneath - that way if i move the dimension or cut and paste it i don't need to select two items.

That would be helpful, as would the possibility to have two (or multiple) lines of text over the dimension line. Another handy method would be the ability to pull the text up and above the dimension line but have it connected by a leader line.

A workaround is to paste a carriage return (CR) into the leader/trailer boxes. I just copy it from a text block and then paste it in. Often it's easier to grab a letter or two either side of the CR and then edit in the OIP.
