How to avoid wall thickness getting dimensioned

Anonymous
Not applicable
I'm dimensioning from the outside corner of two walls to a window in this case. Using Core Only setting for the dim tool. I get a dimension of the wall thickness and one from the inside of the wall to the window.

How do I get just one dimension from the outside corner to the window?

Thank you for any clues!

See attached Doug, or delete the inner wall dimension.

To emphasize Rod's tip...

Make sure your cursor shows a CHECK MARK when clicking on the wall and NOT a "mercedes" (surface click)...

By clicking on a surface while dimensioning, you are telling AC to dimension both sides.
