I need to place a dimension on a assembly drawing. One of the element I need to be measured shown with a cut (see the arrow place):

enter image description here

So the wire need to be 200 mm, but the dimension text is only 18 (exactly the size on the drawing). I need to replace this text manually.

However the text in the textbox "Sample" is not editable. I can not hide wrong text either.

Any ideas how to make this possible?

UPDATE

Just found one way to go: in the format section choose "None" and the text gone:

However I'd like to keep the question for any case there is any better solution.

You can delete the text selecting "Format" equal none. Then you can use the "Prefix" and "Suffix" menus to add a specific text.

The "Sample" box will be updated accordingly.
