     Manufacture - Dimension Environment then right click to see the options. Since 16,5 the dimensions are dynamic so if you wanted to change the vlaue you move thye object and the dimension updates to match the actual value. You can type in a different value if you wish before you add the dimension, look at the Options menu before you place the text (but this isn't advised) you really should make the items match teh dimension text). You can also use right click - change text to change current dimensions..

    But steve, now currently we are using 16.3 pcb editor. so can you provide the solution for the OrCAD 16.3. Thank You steve for your valuable Solution. Thanks & Regards, Dhamodharan

     To edit just hover over the text and use right click - text edit BUT like I mentioned earlier if you need to change the dimension move the objects and re-add teh dimension so that it matches that actual value. The dimension lines are just that so you can use Edit - Vertex etc
