hi everyone - why when i'm using "Level dimension tool" it's not changing automatically level dimensions. I setup different levels with slabs - but it's not working. I didn't have this problem in 6.5. Mybe i something not ON. Answers appreciated.Thanks

Are you using Gravity to place your dimensions?

You'll have to place new ones making sure to use gravity.
From the help file:

Note: Gravity only affects newly created elements and cannot be used for editing existing ones.

your Gravitate on slab have to turn on to sense the level.

use the gravity control on your co-ordinates palette and switch it to 'gravitate to slab' . . .

Activate the level dimension tool first.
