Which Dimension feature is this?

Hi all & especially Italian members,

 

In this video for @Luca Manelli, he was describing a new feature (for me) regarding Dimension in a short clip shared via linked-in.


Kindly, If any one can help me understand it, thanks in advance.

Hello @JeffH,

 

Yes, this feature called (Merge Dimension Chains), since Archicad 19 & earlier but I never heard about.

Hi @Emre Senoglu, Thanks for clarification.

 

Luca had explained it well & even replied to me via LinkedIn exactly as you thankfully mentioned.

 

I need to know the name of this feature, where is it in the help guide? Is it included in pet pallete?
