Straight walls/elements
NB. use aligned rather than linear...
Will automatically pick up centre lines
Attributes:
- 'Gap to element' - the gap between the witness line and element being dimensioned
- 'witness line control' - changing the witness line
- 'dimension line snap' set to 8mm (a nice distance)
- to select snaps etc (centre line, wall faces etc)
- select 'pick entire walls', dimensions
If you see you have missed one in a set, select the dimension line to add to, 'edit witness line'
NB. If you want more control over what is included in a dimension line set, use 'pick individual preference' and manually add them all. But if simple, the use the 'pick entire wall'.
NB. Usually use tick mark diagonal 2.5mm for arch drawings (arrows for engineering)
Altering: click on the component with the dimension if you want to alter it (not the dimension itself)
Angled & curved elements
Angles - Just select 'angular'...fairly simple
If you want to change an angle, click on component then change the angle
Curves - for curved components, click on wall properties, graphic, centre mark visible, tick on.
Spot elevations
For specific floor/stair bits...note that if you add a spot elevation then move the floor/stair tred up the elevation will reflect this
