Moving dimensions

Anonymous — Tue, 30 May 2023 13:26:49 GMT

I'm still trying to get up to speed with Archicad's 9.0 dimensions. How do I move dimension lines manually. I've noticed if I move a wall with the marquee things work, but haven't discovered how to grip or move a dimension's line by itself.

Click on the dimension, you should get 2 pink spots, right click select drag and move.

Maybe faster than all that clicking stuff is to select the "selection arrow" icon, and then left click on the dimension, if you hold down the button for a moment, you can just drag immediately without any additional commands. Might take a couple of tries to get the knack, but it's pretty quick.

Be aware though that if you do this with dimension tool active all you will do is change the length of your leader lines....
