Dimension tool options won't save
When using the dimension tool (beta) in the regular Illustrator program (latest update), I can't save my options. I can open the options window and change settings, but clicking "OK" does nothing. I have to cancel out to close the window in order to continue with my work. The tool will be great when it works correctly. Also, it would be nice if the lines and dimensions were editable. I generally build to scale because the dimensions of my projects to size are too big for the artboards and contain several larger elements. Having to enlarge each piece in order to get the proper measurements is time consuming and inconvenient. Being able to edit those would make things much easier. I have a script that can do it, but the tool would be better.

Am I right thinking that you select some dimension objects, then press Enter (or click the gear button in the floating panel, or double-click the Dimension Tool button in the tool panel), and then try to edit some options in the dialog window, expecting these changes to apply to these dimensions you have selected?
As for the scale — there is a way to change the scale of these, so that all size are bigger or larger.
Please reply.
