Dimensions : Switch between core & wall face

Johann_P

I'm trying to dimension a project.

 

In the Structural Display I need to see Entire Model, but only dimension to the face of the core.

In the same view, there are instances where I need to dimension to the face of the wall finish.

 

The building has multiple angles, and I'm not using the "automatic dimension" tool

 

How do I switch between "dimension to core" and "dimension to finish"?

Can I display both in a single view?

Found it.

 

Double click "dimension" and the settings open.

You can also add them to your info box (via Work Environment settings) if they are not already there by default.
