Automatic & Manual Dimensions

[PJS-59]

I am trying to work with what dimensions are on what layers.

 

Does anyone know if the automatic Interior and Exterior Dimensions can be placed automatically on different layers?

Example: 

• Automatic Exterior Dimensions --> Layer: Dimensions, Exterior
• Auto Dimension Room -- Layer: Dimension, Room
• Leaving Manual Dimensions and Temporary Dimension on Layer: Dimensions, Plan

I can not find anything in Default Settings to allow this.

 

Thank you

I don't know if you can.  You can control the layer your dimensions go on through your dimension defaults and you can quickly change these using saved plan views.  I don't think you can specify that the auto room and auto exterior go on to different layers though.  The best way to do this is to change the current dimension layer, generate your room dimensions, and then change it back to what you want for other dimensions.

 

Someone else might have some better ideas though.
