Three types of dynamic dimensions display on grips:
Focal dimensions, which display highlighted in a white rectangular box.
If you type a value while a dynamic dimension is focused, the edit box is
displayed at the dimension text location.
Editable dimensions, which display based on the drafting settings you
specify. If you press TAB while a dynamic dimension is focused, the
dimension focus shifts forward to the next editable dimension. You can
continue pressing TAB to cycle forward through all editable dimensions,
or press SHIFT+TAB to cycle backward through all editable dimensions.
Non-editable dimensions, which display in black text. These dimensions
typically display the current value of a property that you can modify with
a grip.
You can apply different settings, such as the color of the dynamic dimension
text box, on the Dynamic Input tab in the Drafting Settings dialog box. For
more information, see Use Dynamic Input in AutoCAD Help.
