So you asked how to change the text offset distance, and the solution was to change the text offset distance?

 

Huh???

@barthbradley Pick a dimension style, set the text offset to something dramatic that's easy to see. Draw a horizontal dimension (large enough that the dimension text is still set between the extension lines), then 'move w/ dim line", then from your properties, decrease your text offset. Does the text move horizontally?
