Dimension tool: Expand keeps a dimension as plain art after it moves
Object > Expand left a dimension's recipe on its group, so the next move redrew the live dimension and discarded the expanded art. Expand now ends the live link of a dimension whose art it changes, in the same undo step. Moving or scaling the group leaves its art as it is, the art no longer follows what it measured, and undo gives the live dimension back. Expand Appearance, Create Outlines and Outline Stroke had the same fault and now do the same, also when they reach only a part of a dimension. A dimension whose art a command leaves as it was stays live. A dimension selected with the art it measures becomes a plain group when Expand, Expand Appearance or Outline Stroke replaces only that art.
