move dimension in part mode in Creo 2

[JLG]

In Creo 2:
In part mode, I created a sketch, and completed the feature. Then I edited the sketch, and tried to reposition one of the dimensions on the screen. I right-clicked on the selected dimension, picked "Properties", and got the "Dimension Properties" dialog, but the "Move..." button is grayed out.



Does anybody know how to move a dimension while in part mode in Creo 2?

Thanks in advance!

Best regards,
Janet Grove

I found an answer - I resurrected my old menu_def.pro file:
@setbutton FEAT *#Modify #done;#modify
@setbutton ASSY#FEAT *#Modify #done;#modify

Now when I start "Feature Operations" I have the "* Modify" command, which opens the old menu manager for modifying dimensions:

If anybody has any better ideas, I'd love to hear them!

I should clarify my problem. In reality, I wanted to view the dimensions from 2 different sketches at once (via Edit, not Edit Definition); some of the dimensions were overlapping on the screen, and I needed to spread them out a bit.

Thanks for the replies I've gotten so far.
