1- In CATIA you can have 3 Lines of text in a dimension. You do that by Right-click>Properties, Dimensions Texts tab.

2- Try enabling the all Manipulators in Tools>options>Mech design>drafting>manipulators.

You'll have more control this way.

Don't forget that U can use plain text also, then the text can be "position link" with the dimension
