Custom thread standards show up with a "Ref." designation when they are dimensioned in drafting mode. The result being "Ref. .38"

I can replace the "Ref." with another label; however, a customer would like the following format:

"THD. .38-24UNF."

Any help on how to do this would be appreciated.
 
1. Change it to a Fake dimension, or

2. Replace it with a Leader Text
 
Thanks for the reply Jackk!

Would there be a more automated way for placing multiple dimensions of that type, though?

I tried modifying the .txt files in the standard folder, but I've had no luck.
