Creo 3, M070

 

OK, I'm pretty sure I've done this in Creo 3, but I can't seem to do it now.  The Creo 3 drawing "enhancements" are killing me. I've got this:

I need to move the R.750 to the left side of the leader, like this:

That's from a PDF made from an older version of the same drawing. Unfortunately, I had to recreate the dim and I can't get the text to move.  I can drag the dim around just fine and I can hover over the text and get a double arrow that implies that I can drag the text, but it simply moves the entire dim.  I've tried a shown and created dim with the same results.

 

How do I move the text in Creo 3?

As is typical, not 30 seconds after I posted it I figured it out.  Select the dim, right mouse, select "flip text".  So much easier than the drag handles we used to have.

You can also select the dimension and hold the "shift" key and you will be able to drag the text where you need it.
