Dual Dimensions

Hi, so SolidWorks only allows secondary dimensions to be displayed 1 of 4 ways (top, bottom, right, left) under Tools, Options, Document Properties,Dimensions. This setting applies to the entire drawing, and there is apparently no individual control over specific dimensions. For instance, sometimes secondary dims fit better above, and sometimes to the right. Does anyone know a work-around, besides manually inputting dimensions? :confused:
Thank you
