Use auto dimension on the correct drawing layer

Set the units to the matching plan layer first, then add auto dimension to populate every cabinet dimension at once.

1. To dimension a plan, first set the drawing layer of the units to the matching plan layer (e.g. base unit layer for a base unit plan, wall unit layer for a wall unit plan) rather than the dimension layer.

2. Then scroll down and use 'Add Auto Dimensioning' to place the main dimensions at once: in an elevation each unit's carcass width and height (in skeleton mode also its internal widths and heights), in a floor plan at room level the room and its units.

3. You can drag and rearrange the dimensions.

5. You can center the dimensions on screen.

6. A view's settings menu in the views bar has Lock View. It locks the view itself (a locked view keeps its camera; Unlock View in the same menu undoes it); it does not lock the dimensions: in a locked view a dimension can still be dragged and deleted.
