Electromen Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 Look at this Screenshot I selected the wall for the closet on the right and this is what I see. The second screenshot is with nothing selected. I have all dimensions turned off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArthurDent Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 When you select the wall, Chief will show all dimensions even if they are turned off. X6 does the same thing. I'm surprised you haven't seen this before. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm surprised you haven't seen this before. I usually don't move a wall this late in the process. I guess I never noticed it. Thank you for the quick response.

Joe_Carrick Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 I would never have all those dimensions.in my plan. Even if I had done those interior dimensions (auto I assume) I would have deleted any that were extraneous. Most of the time there are only a few interior dims needed where an exterior dimension can't identify a wall location. Less is More (better) - especially when it can reduce clutter.

ArthurDent Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 I sometimes create more then one set of dimensions for different purposes on different layers. For example, I may want one set of dimensions for my presentation floor plan and one for my working drawings. I can then turn them off and on as needed using the layer sets. It's pretty annoying when they all pop up though when ever you select a wall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you showing temp dimension in the first image? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think temp dims would give you that much stuff. As Arthur mentioned, even with your dim layers turned off, CA will display them when you select the wall.

Ridge_Runner Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 Can't tell for sure, but your second view looks like that wall is not exactly in line with the wall the toilet above is on. That would probably give you some extra dimensions, but I wouldn't think "that" many extra. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have any of those dimensions in my plan and I have all auto dimension layers turned off. It's only when I select an object like the wall.
