To Change a Dimension Symbol
Dimension symbols are the text symbols you enter to replace the Creo Parametric default dimension symbol @D.
1. Click Modify on the LEGACY DWG menu.
2. Click Dimension on the MODIFY DRAW menu.
3. Select the dimension. The Modify Dimension dialog box opens.
4. Click Dimension Text.
5. Type text in the Name text box without spaces as the new dimension symbol. For example, for d1 you can type [LENGTH].
6. To display a dimension in its symbolic form, edit the dimension text using Text Line or Full Note in the MODIFY TEXT menu.
7. Replace the @D symbol or the @O symbol (used for draft dimensions) with the @S symbol.
8. To switch back, do the opposite.
