How to dimension other reveal type windows

Anonymous
Not applicable
You can see in the picture below the essence of my question =

When i have a regular straight reveal type, there are hotspots (if called so) at the corners of the window (L06) and i can use them for Auto Dimensioning

BUT

when I have other reveal type set to the windows (L01) these "hotspots" (?) don't match with the corners of the actual window.

Why so?
Do you know how to change that?

Looks like the hotspots you have turned on are for the bounding box. Not sure which version of AC you are using, but there will be a setting to show additional hotspots.

Please add your AC version and computer specs to your signature.
