link dimension value in text

I have a range of similar parts that have a feature which changes size from part to part. I have embossed the size on each part but I'd like he value to be linked to the dimension so it updates when I change the part. Is there a way to do this?

    Hi @eric_simon, yes there are several ways to do this. If there are only a few sizes, the best way will probably be to use a List Configuration. However there are other ways if you would like it more dynamic. See these self paced courses on how to use configurations: Learning Center - Configurations
