Trying to delete a dimension, only way I can find is to delete the sketch entity it is attached to, which is a bit of a pain, there must be an easier way

When you set a dimension, it locks it, so to get rid of this, you have to unlock it. First tap on the dimension and on the appearing numpad tap on unlock (above the submit button). I hope this helps!
