U can overwrite “replace with text” by right clicking in the input box, go to Insert Unicode control character and then select US, unit separator. Keep up the great work!

Hello to everyone, those who think that the tutos will give them CAD/DAO knowledge, ask the teacher to pass on to you from Lesson tutos. Very good videos for usage tips.
Keep making new tutorials, thank you and don't abandon us.
Good work

5:00 Fix to dimension line. Didnt know that one! Thanks Balkan

What i would like is a custom dimension that knows if it is drawn to wall face, face of core, wall center-line, etc. Then you could set up an automatic suffix such as "WC" when that custom dimension type is used. You could create a dimension for each one.

Faking the dim nice what a dodge. Love the CL mark option Stair unumber is cool too.

Please sir I want some of your Revit library

Wouldn't be easier to just use the build-in "Insert Unicode control character" than some shady website to force a dimension override?

The BIM managers out there aint gonna like their users learning the symbol trick. We literally ban this in most offices as it leads to major issues later on when we construct.

I have a dynamo script specifically for hunting down and resetting dimensions containing symbols just to deal with these people haha!

Anyone knows how to dimension a site plan. The lines are not parallels to the house. Align will not work.

How to change dimension text only not dimension lines, please describe.

[sinakhodaie]

Thank you for your really helpful hints and lessons. Is there a way to make sure dimension text will stay in-line with the dimension line in Revit?

Good to round small fraction, but don't use this trick for entire building project. This causes things don't fit in the model. This is dirt trick use in Revit Bim.

Sponsor: order ----sketch
