Now you can access specific dimension editing functions more quickly. Depending on the dimension type (2D or 3D), the dimension behavior (driving, driven, or synchronous locked or unlocked) and where you click, a single click can display:
All of the dimension editing functions.
Only the dimension value edit box.
Only the dimension formatting command bar.
You also can use Alt+click to get the alternate behavior.

Automatic dimensions on ordered features
When dynamically editing dimensions generated automatically on ordered features, you can click the dimension text to edit both the dimension value and the dimension formatting.
You can display only the formatting command bar using Alt+click.
2D dimensions
For 2D dimensions on synchronous sketches, ordered profiles, and in the Draft environment, you can:
Use the same techniques to edit 2D dimensions.
Change the value of multiple, selected dimensions at once. A blank data entry box is displayed for you to enter a single value.
To learn how, see Edit 2D dimensions (sketch, profile, draft).
Not-to-scale dimensions
For 2D and 3D not-to-scale dimensions, you now can click the dimension text to display both the formatting and value editing options.
If you only want to edit the dimension formatting, you can Alt+click the dimension text, instead.
Jogs in projection lines
For all dimensions, you can select a projection line and then use Alt+click to add a jog. You can select a jog handle and then use Alt+click to remove the jog.
Deleting dimensions
For all dimensions, you can use the Delete key to delete the entire dimension when the cursor is not in the value edit box. Alternatively, you can delete just the dimension value when the cursor is in the value edit box and the value is highlighted.
