Defining your own dimensions

Currently designing a frame with multiple bends. Is there a way to make your own dimensions as the ones it makes for me aren't useful in creating a frame that is easy to fabricate. I want to make L3 or L2 round numbers since I want to make my fabricrating job as easy as possible but can't figure out how. Also, is there a way to erase dimensions it put on for you? That 40 dimension highlighted is useless to me and can't figure out how to take it off. Thanks in advance.

This is very basic Creo functionality. Are you remembering to drop the dimension with the middle mouse button?

You can make your own dimensions on drawings or in model annotations.

Can you be a little more specific? I can't anything with drawings, if you mean sketch where? I can't get the dimensions option to work, nor the annotations.
