editing dimensions

(OP)
Hi guys, long time no see...
I am back with a question about editing parts dimensions (I suppose it's already been discussed, but didn't found the threads).
In 2008, I think by default, when selecting a dimension there's a small box that allows to change it. But if I have configurations, there´s no control about that and I must go to the feature manager tree to select what configurations should be changed.
It's possible to change the editing to the dimension editing window(the one with the dial), on wich I have full control of what I want to do. But I only can change the editing box each dimension at a time, and sometimes SW remembers the changing, sometimes don't.
So, is there a way I can change to the editing window in a permanent way, or at least for all dimensions of a part at one time? This is realy a PITA and error prone.

Thanks
