Dimension Text not rotating properly

I have a block that I would like the length of the white dashed line displayed. I have attached the sample block and a picture of the desired final outcome. I have tried two different approaches, using an assoicative dimension and a field linked to the length of the white line. (P.S. I only need one or the other between the field and dimension displayed.)
When I use the dimension, it has some quirks (the text moves to the right as the line stretches and it doesn't rotate properly). I tried using a field to get the length, but I would like to round UP to the nearest 6". Another problem I am having is matching the block to the Dimscale of the drawing (my company scales the drawing by 48 to draw at 1/4" scale, and 96 for 1/8" scale, not ideal I know).
Help is much appreciated before I rip all my hair out trying to figure this out, thanks
