The illustrations below show the result of dragging between connection points
on two Quick Squares with the Vertical Dimension Line Tool enabled.
A pair of parallel extension lines
with end nodes appears from the
two points. Between the two
extension lines, the dimension line
and its label "float". Click the blue
line box to position the floating line
and label; drag the red circle within.

where you want them. (You can
always change the positions later.)

For an angular dimension, click the Angular Dimension Line Tool then
click on a point along one side of the desired angle, then drag and release the
mouse button at a point along the other side of the angle (points A and B in the
illustration). Click again at the vertex of the angle (point C). These three points
define the starting and ending sides of the angle. Between the two sides, the
angle's arc and its label "float," awaiting final positioning. Click again to position
the floating elements.
Angles are measured anti-clockwise from the starting to the ending
side, so choose your three nodes accordingly
