Hello.

I am one of this horrible persons to use Impress for structual drawings. Works perfect. I have on request: Would it be possible to change the dimension for a dimension line? 

I know:
- It works in Impress
- I can change the label manually

Since we use it a lot, I would like to ass a field "Dimmension" in the property editor ( see attached image, Click on the Dimension Line and select Dimmension ) saying scale. There you could enter for example 1:10 or 1:1000 or 1:3000.

I think the change is not really complex and would be a nice feature for everyone.

Thank you 

Oliver
