Command to show TRUE dimension

I have to deal with the plans of others, some who change the dimensions through text formatting that I can see are fake or incorrect. I used to have a command that would detect the ACTUAL dimension but I can't seem to find it in ACAD 2010. 

 

Can anyone help me find the command to restore the true dimensions?

 

Thank you

DIMREASSOC

 

Express Tools > Dimension > Reset Dim Text Value

 

Tip:  Type "ALL" when prompted to select objects and it will highlight all the dims with text overrides and tell you how many there are in the drawing.

Fake as in "fudged", the dim is 10 and someone wrote 25 instead?
There is no core command to fix it, never has been, and still none: you had a customization or addon that is no longer present.

Confirm that is the problem and someone here can share an "unfudge" routine you can add to your custom tools set.

Nice one, nestly!

I didn't use dimreassoc for so long, that I forgot it existed... Kudos
