Dimension tool improvements
The dimension tool is a really helpful thing but some improvements would be appreciated.
As stated in other posts, please include the possibility to add user defined scalings, including decimal numbers like 1:1.5 and other ones, like 1:15.
According to ISO standards, the dimension text should sit above the lines, as viewed from the right. This would be a great option, because at this moment I don't use this tool regularly because of this.
When dimensions are too small, there should be an option to move the text away, either to the right or the left. Of course this can be done afterwards but the whole thing has to be expanded to move the text. Maybe this could be improved somehow.
Arrowheads with small dimensions now overlap. It would be better to revert them to the outside if necessary.
Architectural diagonal slashes are missing from the list of arrows and stroke endpoints. Those would be great!

The dimensions tool is great, I'm using it a lot, thank you so much. I have some ideas that will improve its functionality:
- Create dimensions styles, so I can choose a style with the scale, font size, colour, etc.
- Create a dynamic dimension, as we get in ArtiosCad: If I put some dimensions in a rectangle if I change its position and size it, the dimensions must reflect the changes
- Ability to chose some default settings for dimension's layer as (its colour, its name, if will it be visible and printable).
