this is what I see

Just move the walls to the new size, and rebuild the roofs, framing and foundation to suit.

Here is a view and quote from the OP on what they are looking for after they did some editing.. I think my video covered that, unless I am missing something.

You are so close. Now you need to make the roof plans join. Here is a video that I made to address this exact situation. Sorry there is a glitch in the middle that cuts off a comment in mid sentence.

You can manually adjust the ridge like to match. Make note of the ridge height that you would like to match, then use that on the roof to be adjusted locking the facia top height. This will disable auto rebuild, so you will have to join the roof plane intersections yourself.

Make the railing layer have dashed lines.

Dennis, Please watch the video. Thanks

Great advice from both Gene and Michael. Nice work colleagues.

Wow, this would be a question that Rene Rabbitt might be able to answer. https://chieftalk.chiefarchitect.com/profile/10037-renerabbitt/ From my experience, the answer is no, but then Rene is the expert, so if there is an answer other than no, he would be the one that would know.

Hi Dennis, If you have started this project, then posting the plan file may help someone to answer your question. Also a photo of an example might be clearer than your posed question. Something like this?

I see! Sorry i misunderstood the problem.

It seems that you can do a macro to get a line length, then use a global variable to use that in a text somewhere else. There doesn't seem to be a way to get dimension data from the actual dimension itself

I really don't understand the problem. CA can do text both ways, at least if you use richtext. For the library user, I think he should do an early withdrawal on his request.

Rich text and just underline the characters not the spaces. This would be a good feature for CA to implement though.
