Dimensions

Resizing by Dragging and

Dropping

You can alter the distance at which a style dimension is placed from the nodes to which it is applied by dragging and dropping the dimension line itself.

Procedure

Select any point on your dimension line, and then click and drag the dimension to your new location on the diagram.
Release the mouse button to confirm the change.Note The behavior of the drag and drop action is dictated by the orientation of the first segment in the bundle. In the example shown in Figure 269 a bundle has three segments, with the orientation of dimension resizing dictated by segment 1. Resizing the dimension in segment 1 is simple matter of selecting any point on the segment and moving the mouse up or down. If you select a point in segment 2 you must still move the mouse either up, or down because of the orientation of segment
While in segment 3 the action is down or up (the reverse of the action for segment 1), given the u-shaped nature of the example bundle.
