johnny Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 I've been struggling with something I am sure there is some quick and easy answer (i hope) to. I've used the auto-exterior dimensions on this plan, but then I went back and modified the dimensions how I wanted. I have a situation in 1 corner where the dimension end simply won't allow itself to be relocated. Right now its going to the inside of an exterior wall (the only one in the plan), and I want to simply move the point to the exterior of that wall. I click the endpoint, drag to the corner I want it to be on (like any other dimension) and it remains locked in its originial config. Thanks for any help.

Gawdzira Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 Try zooming in closer. If no, try turning off the extraneous layers and turning on the layer "Main Layer Only" for the walls. If no, draw a cad line 6" away from that corner and snap to that first, then snap to the wall location. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnny Posted July 22, 2014 Author Share Posted July 22, 2014 Thank you - you second suggestion about getting to the main layer only revealed that the wall's main layer had been flipped somehow, and so the exterior dimension was actually where it was supposed to be, but the wall's main layer wasn't in the right direction. I didn't notice this due to the large door/window taking up nearly the entire area (but now I am curious how my elevations seemed to work. Oh, well ....fixed - thank you again.
