Hi,

For point 2, I think you have to adapt or create your Drawing Standard("Tools" - "Standards.."):

I don't know witch value you have to change.

For point 3, the different colors for dimensions are defined in the "Tools" - "Options..":

1) Use the Cumulated Dimension System tool

2) I don't think it can be done, but why do you want to hide the dimension line? If you attach an example of what you want, I'll try to help you

3) Use the Analysis Display Mode icon on the bottom of the screen to turn off the dimension colors. You can also turn it off in the properties panel you attached above - it's the bottom option (the one you marked with a "3")
 
Hi jackk

I tried cumulated dimension but I am getting dimension line as you can see my image in red rectangle there are only extension line with value at each point I am trying to get that
 
Thank you puk.

I know this before I thought there must be other way because if we can do by above method we can hide any line. And there is no need of option called display extension line
 
Are you sure white line won't print?
