appending text outside basic dims

Could someone tell me which option or config setting excludes appended text from the box on a basic dimension?





thanks in advance
 
Don't know if there are any - the more experienced users may know of some "unofficial" settings. I'm on WF4 and the text is put outside as default. It is said to be an improvement, but an improvement would be to let me decide if I want it in- or outside.


A workaround you may know of would be to manually control the box:


@[@D@]
Text


Puts the dim in a box, and "text" underneath.


@[@D
Text@]


Puts the dim in a box, and "text" underneath in a box


@[@DText@] puts the dim and text on the same line - in the same box


The key is where you put the @[ and @] to start and end the box.


Hope this helps
