Here is two room house I quickly sketched.  I selected the interior wall.  Look at the picture.

Hi

 

New to CA.

 

How do I alter my settings to be able to type in my interior dimension that I desire, rather than the exterior one?

 

If doing Remodel Work and measuring existing Homes to wall Surfaces eg Drywall , not Framing you can set your Dimension defaults to locate Surfaces instead of the Wall Dimension Layer (Framing Layer usually).

In the General Wall Defaults (Alt-Q) you could also switch the Resize about Option to Main Layer Inside (Framing) or Inner Surface temporarily while laying out walls.
