Automatic Exterior Dimensioning doesn't work with windows

[Anonymous]

Hello!
I am working in ArchCAD 16 and the problem is that i have the wall with windows, but I am not able to put out dimensions in any good manner.
If I move the windows around after , the dimensions stay in the same place and are not connected with the window. Then i have to delete them and make a new dimension line

Cant get the dimension function to link with window object neither manually nor with Auto dimension tool.


I did read both of these instructions and checked the settings to have the 2D Hotspots enabled, but it still doesn't work.

Looks like your dimension default settings are set as 'static'.

To reset uncheck 'static dimensions' in the dimensions settings dialog without any dimensions selected.

You cannot change a dimension back to associative once it is changed to static, so you will need to redimension the drawings

I checked that. But that is not the problem.

Why the automatic dimensioning doesn't recognize the windows that is what i don't understand !
