1. Manual Dimensions don’t stick to the objects they are intended to be linked to

   Starting form Ai Beta 28.4.0.7, dimension objects are sticky (linked) to the objects we click with the Dimension tool — so that when we move or transform the objects, their linked dimensions move with them.

   For some reason this applies only to 'Aligned dimensions' (those that are made with the click-drag-release method).

   When we use click-click-click method, Illustrator creates 'Manual dimensions', which look the same way as the aligned ones, but for some peculiar reasons that makes no sense to us, are not sticky.

   This means that we can’t apply live and linked dimensions to objects that are anything more complex than a simple rectangle (which are the majority of things we need to measure) and we can’t move the artwork without dimensions self-expanding (because currently we can’t move dimensions WITH objects either).

   This makes the whole sticky-live-linked thing just a toy, barely usable for real work. This is not how other apps and plugins for Illustrator do this, because it makes no sense.

   And finally, if you compare this behavior with the way Angular dimension works — it correctly links the dimension with both methods!

   Please fix the bug.

   The latest Beta 28.5.0.78 allows manual dimensions to stick to arbitrary points and recalculate correctly when objects are repositioned or transformed — just as we expected it to. This includes gaps also.

   Please try it and see if it works for all the cases you have and comment back.

   The team has revised the UI for Image Trace and reverted it to the way it looked in 27.0. So far this is only available in the latest Beta version, but it is planned to make it released soon.
