Is it possible to change the dimension text showing pattern components?

 

For example, I want this annotation: 

4 Components.PNG

 

To become this:

4 Components2.PNG

 

The dimension text I am using is:

"@D (&INSTANCES)"

Simplest way to do this is to change the pattern dimension you are referencing. Click on the pattern, right click to get the dimensions, select the one that says "4 COMPONENTS", and modify the Dimension Text. I do this all the time with dimensional patterns in parts where it says things like "12 PROTRUSIONS" and such. Hope it's applicable for an assembly pattern.
