Dimensioning tool

Hi. Just had to adjust a slab and everything above it. Lets not delve into details, but engineers...

 

We are in the documentation process. With the dimensioning tool i have proposed this would have been an afterthought, but with the current workflow we have to check every single drawing because dimensioning asosiation is so unrealiable. Things you think are linked to the dimension are not, and getting them linked its a very slow click process. Many hours lost in this.

 

Making a GO to the check for unlinked does not cut it. What good is that all the elements are updated in all views if the information is not correctly updated? the dimensioning process and  tools need a complete revamp, otherwise after a certain scale, as i just found out, its even more inneficient and slower than 2d cad. 

 

Hope something is done about this, as its very frustrating to know that changing something in the project you need check it everywhere anyway

hence the faultiness and complete outdateness of the current tool
