I would urge anyone using dimensions tools to work with that shortcut and presets as well.
Presets are really flexible. You can set up simple generic ones e.g. text 6pt,8pt,10pt
By type e.g. arrow 1,2,3, by main display feature e.g. horizontal/vertical boxed text, leader dot, leader arrow.
It is almost too flexible!

I also use a shortcut on "O" to open options dialogue box. At moment there
is no link between details and presets page so I find creating presets on the fly is best done with
an options dialogue box shortcut. My post #9950 is work in progress and will cover some of this.

Hi Dan I use this one;
O = Options
moi.ui.createDialog( 'moi://ui/options.htm','resizeable,default');

(this might not be textbook, i have shortened this on purpose,new to MOI & scripts and just wanted
to see what works in shortest form possible)

I also use:
H= DimHorizontal FromObject
V= DimVertical FromObject

I'm hoping for a one click segment dimension tool in future, thats mentioned/shown here:
