Hello there, I did some searching and cannot find out how to do this by default. I can grab the text and move it so it's sitting in the dimension string, but I cannot have it set by default. In the settings the closest I can get is 0" which is sitting right on top of the line. Not in it and I cannot set that gap length to a negative number. Anyone know how I can do this? Thanks.

Sorry to revive an old thread, but I'm having a similar problem. I do NOT want to use the manual overrides for dimension strings, but would like for the dimension text to appear BELOW the dimension line. Revit will not let me use a negative value for the text offset. Ultimately, what I need is a dim string with imperial values above the line, and metric below, but I do not believe that is possible. Someone prove me wrong...

Pretty much what I have done so far, but I gave one a text offset larger than the other. This leaves me with a single dimension line with TWO lines of text ABOVE the line. Not too bad, but ONE line above and ONE line below would be perfect.
