Dimension measures not showing in layout

I have drawn a house and put dimensions on the first floor, and it looks good on the layout. But when I did the same thing on the second floor, they don't show in the layout.  How can I fix this problem?

I am assuming the dimensions are in the same layer in both floor plans.

Did you create a 'view' in the view map of the first floor plan?

You should always create views for what you want to place on a layout.

You then place this view on the layout with the drawing tool (or just drag from the view map to the layout.

If you do the same for the second floor and it has the same view settings (i.e the same layer combination), they should both show the dimensions.
