I Imported an AutoCAD dwg and used the project dwg geomery tool to make a sketch from it, but it turns out that all the dimensions are totally wrong. How can I delete/unlink reference dimensions and input them manually?

The AutoCAD drawing has been referenced into the sketch which makes it "Reference" geometry. In my color scheme, reference geometry is dark green. Edit the sketch, select all the geometry, and then right click and select "Break Link". This changes the geometry to normal sketch entities. Then select the driven dimensions and change them to driver dimensions and add any other dimensions you desire and you are good to go. The background image is the AutoCAD drawing which you can turn off.
