Associtive dimension

Might be interesting to be able to directly convert the associative dimension via ctrl-right click, so you can change more easily the content?
Instead of exploding the content? And vice versa.
What do you think about? Can you do?

If you change the dimension number, then what is the point of still having it associative? If you want to add something like VIF or +/- or NTS, then I'd just add some text.

I have little interest in changing the text of an associative dimension but I would like to be able to add text as Neil mentioned. For instance "# TREADS =" or "O.C.".

Other cad systems I have worked with allow a perfix or a suffix to be added to a dim. I use it a lot.
