Gawdzira Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 I have been seeing this happen quite a bit in x15. In the image I had a dimension string at 6' and +/- 4' to the walls. I was adjusting the walls using the dimensions. Once I hit the dimension to move the 4' section, the dimension string lost the 6' segment and became a 10' segment. I realize that 10' is greater than 6' and we should all shoot for greatness but in this case, I am not feeling great about the behavior.

Chrisb222 Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 Worked for me. I snapped a new dim marker to the corner, selected the common wall, clicked on the 4'3-1/2" number, hit 48" and got 4' and 6'...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gawdzira Posted September 22, 2023 Author Share Posted September 22, 2023 Yes, it is a random behavior. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gawdzira Posted September 22, 2023 Author Share Posted September 22, 2023 On a side note, this plan I am working off of for the as built was drawn in 1973. The dimensioning strategy is clear and simple. Good enough to use as a guide for how to do it right for clarity and simpliciity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gawdzira Posted September 22, 2023 Author Share Posted September 22, 2023 It is a plan from the mystical land of whole numbers. I have wanted to visit but I am afraid I won't return. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I eliminate as many 1/2" as I can by switching the marker to the other wall side, but sometimes it looks like it might be confusing to the framer. That plan also looks like whole numbers dictated where the dim marker goes... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
