You have to pick the drop down menu next to Prefix or Suffix.

On this type of info, I use Text with Leader and the Insert Symbol toolbar. See screen shot.

It would be nice if I could do it from the before/ after option within the dimension.
Thanks for taking a look.

First, type the symbols and text that you want into a text box. Now copy from the text box and paste that into the before/after option on the dimension. Some fonts will allow all the symbols to show up, some don't allow any fonts to show up and some only allow some of the fonts to show up.
I've tried to attach a picture showing 'diameter symbol 5.1 depth symbol 10.0' inserted before a linear dimension, hopefully it shows up.
