[BUG?] Elevation Dimension generates wrong symbol

Hello guys,

I encountered a weird problem during my addon testing. The addon generates an Elevation Dimension on a Wall on Section view, and somehow it creates it with the wrong symbol.
I found out that for some unknown reason if the Default setting of Dimension Type is set as 'Elevation Dimension', it creates that symbol. Once I changed it to the other three choices it now generates the correct symbol. Weird since I force it to 'APIApp_Elev' in the code anyway.

Can you verify the mark size?

My mistake, you're right it seems the Elevation Dimension has a different size value to the other three types, though its value is 0 which is beyond the minimum value of 0.50 on the settings dialog. After I forced it to size 2.0 it now generates correctly.

Thanks for the help.
