Room DIMS in Zones missing in AC12?

[Anonymous]

Is the option in the zone tool to show LxW of the room gone in AC12?

Used to you could show the dimensions of the room and then pull the pink nodes to the corners and it would give you the dimensions. Was handy in residential.

Also, is it mandatory to have the room stamp a color? in AC11 it was void of color until you higligted it, now its a solid color fill. Is that really necessary to have that not an attribute to turn off? Kind of annoying that some of the upgrades are turning out to be annoyances.

JL,
Whether or not the zone's color shows is a Model View Option (MVO).

I don't recall this ever being a feature of the standard zone stamps. I wrote one that did this and so did Tom Waltz as I recall. You likely were using a custom stamp and presumably still have it around somewhere. Remember the stamps are selected in the zone categories dialog and not by individual zones.
