The same set of dimension points can be specified individually in the AEC dimension style for these objects:
- Mass elements/mass groups
- Curtain walls
- Window assemblies
- Structural members (columns/braces/beams)
- Standalone windows/doors/openings
- Others
- Stairs
- Railings
- Spaces
- Roofs/roof slabs/slabs
Note: If you need different dimension points for individual items from the Other group, it is recommended that you create different dimension styles containing the varying settings. For example, you can create an AEC dimension style for stairs where you dimension the bounding box only, and another dimension style for spaces that dimensions the space edges.
The following dimensions points an be specified in the AEC dimension style for the objects in this category:
Selection | Description | Example |
---|---|---|
Overall | Dimensions the two outer points of selected objects |
![]() |
Bounding Box | Dimensions the bounding box of each object in the selection set |
![]() |
Edges: All Edges | Dimensions all edges in an object |
![]() |
Edges: Facing Edges | Dimensions the edges of the object that are visible from the direction of the dimension line |
