Hello,
Our design & construction documentation team has found that dimensioning in sections has become very tedious as we have to manually select each core face on each wall (we use complex profiles for the majority of our walls), and in plan it will select them without issues. The dimension tool will grab our composite walls/slabs etc. in section without issue. Not sure if this has anything to deal with our profile setup (snip of that included below) themselves, but it used to work previously (same complex profiles) with relatively no other issues. Link to video of the issue is included below.
While this issue causes for a minor inefficiency in production by having to manually select each point, the bigger issue is that the dimensions previously would be associated and move with the wall, whereas now the way we have to select them, they seem to not be linked to anything and remain in the same point on the view when the wall moves.

Hi Barry,
Thank you (and @Mahmoud Qenawi )so much for looking into this and for your help, this makes a lot more sense now. 🙂
