Make more improvements to Dimensions
Some add'l improvements that would be greatly appreciated:
• Higher precision settings. At least to 1/8" but 1/16" would be great as well.
• More formatting options for foot inch/ e.g. 7" instead of 0'-7"
• Dimension text centered with the dimensions line as option, with a break in the line to accommodate the text.
• Scale options (custom as well) in architectural format in addition to engineering format (e.g. 1/2" = 1'-0" in addition to 1:24)
• Options to show dimension text rotated 90° - separate options for vertical, vs horizontal dimensions.
• For "Line Type", give us all the standard stroke options.
• Add an option to dimension a center line - centerline line style - maybe as an option key when pulling the dimension to turn it on/off for one or both of the extension lines.
Thank you for finally adding this as an alternative to expensive plugins! It is greatly appreciated!

Related to these two requests:
1. On Dimension Tool Options -Please add. 0"-0 1/8" & 0"-0 1/16" to Unit precision. I really need 3/8", 5/8",7/8"

2. The Dimension Tool Precision menu needs more precise options — https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/48649604 -
Jeremy, can you clarify the latter one, about centerlines, please?
Perhaps a small mockup can help to clarify it?
