Dynamic door block with attribute

Hello everyone, I made a handy door block.
However, the attribute gives the wrong info.
I want the attribute to show the door width.
In this block he gives the wall opening.
But I don't need that information.

What I would do is add a line between the door frame and add that to your door width stretch and use a field to reference the length of that line OR

Just add a dimension to the door width, and add it to the stretch and hide all non relevant lines. If you do that the distance will update in real time instead of you having to regenerate it.

Wow @h_s_walkerthis was already very helpful.
Since sometimes I don't have the patience to regenerate.
But if I rotate the block, the measure will automatically change text direction. Is it possible to turn off the text direction?

Offtopic:

You should re-create this block, this time: CLEAN length&coordinates.

Especially for Blocks, Layouts and other kind of "templates" you should spend some time more,

becaue you will use it often in the feature.

@YoshiCoolen See the image below (red ringed items).

If you want the El text to stay horizontal I would add the text to the dimension text
