The chained dims is great for keeping all your dims neat and in line but I often need to edit them some times even remove one from the mix, delete vertice does remove but it extends the adjacent one to make it still stay chained...
I don't want to do the dims one at a time the chain function is awesome for doing them first pass...
I cant find a way to drop or convert to single or drop association of the chaining... tried most things I can think of...if I drop dims from the drop tool they stop being dims, if I only tick complex it does nothing to the dims
if I select all the chained dim and use the drop association keyin again nothing changes still chained dims....
Maybe it needs to be a vba command or vba programming ...

There's a work around, maybe it will help, convert to dwg, and then back to dgn. The result will be separate dimensions.

In V8i there is an option on the "main" Drop Element tool to either drop Dimensions to Geometry or Segments. If you have that option available to you, I believe Segments is what you're looking for.

When you use the drop element tool and have Dimensions set to segments you should get something similar to the above image.
