RE: Editing Dims
Is it a SW file (.slddrw)?
Do you also have the associated models?

2. yes
3. yes that has several configs
If you double click and try to change the length it says something about active config.

If the dim is imported from the model, edit the dim in the model and add the "2x" text after the <DIM>. This will show on the drawing.
