For a dimension set to @S, you should be able to just click the basic radio button in the display tab for the dimension properties.

For @O you can add @[ and @] before and after your text like this:

@O@[YOUR TEXT GOES HERE@]

Hello Chris

Thanks for reply;

For @s its only taking whatever mention in name it wont allow spaces.

I need to mention DIM C so I am mention Name as C & in description I am writing DIM @S

It results DIM BASIC C not BASIC DIM C.

Please try with same . I am forcing @S because it will not give any error while running MODELCHECK regenerate.

For @O it is showing : Owerrited dimension as a warning

I think it is ASME Y14.5 that controls this (although I could be wrong). This behavior is intentional to comply with a standard. Only the dimension gets boxed. If you want something else you need to use the @[ and @]

If you add "dim" to the prefix box, it puts it inside the basic box.

OR

use the coding mentioned by Chris

@[DIM @S@]

to get the desired result without using the basic toggle
