Revit :: Can't Move Windows By Temp Dimension

Dec 4, 2013

Why would a window be movable by dragging but not movable by changing the temporary dimension?  It's not pinned.
 
It works fine for the walls, but no matter what I put in the dimension value it won't budge the window an inch.
 
Is it an error in my family or is there something wrong with the project?  I've been having a lot of problems with this one.  I feel like it's all the funny angles, but the window and the door are in the same freaking wall so why should that matter?

Revit 2010.I'm trying to change the temp dimension size. (Can read the 8pt.?) I've looked at the .ini file and don't see where I can change it. I've also read where it can be changed via some 'option'. Under which tab and panel is the 'option'?

Photoshop :: Move Temp Files To Another Location?

Sep 18, 2012

Photoshop does a lot " *. TMP" files when the program is started up. These temp files, I would have moved to another location.How can I do it?

I am aware that it is possible to define which file "Photoshop Temp11309645056" to be created and how I place it at his own request, but it is not these files I ask for positioning.

Revit :: Wall Placement And Temp Dimensions?

Dec 16, 2011

I am sorta of new to Revit. I have been using it off and on for about 3 years and I have one burning question. What  and how does Revit determine where the temp dimension is based off of when you are placing new walls? I have had the temp dimension jump all the way across a plan to find a wall that I drew 3-4 hours ago and has no relevance to the current wall I am drawing. The space I am currently on has a geometric relationship to the walls around it, not to a partition wall 200 feet away with no relationship to the current space. Yes I understand the building as a whole has a relationship to all parts within, but I think you get the drift.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Move Dimension Job But Leave Text Where Placed

Apr 11, 2013

Check out the two pics I have added. I did this from Solidworks. Sometimes when dimensioning you have a series of holes that are close together like the ones shown below. What I would like to do is to drag the jog so that the dimension line does not run thru the other hole and the text stays where you put it. I would like to be able to do this without exploding it or going thru some sort of hoops to make it happens. Is this possible in Autocad? I thought that in a earlier version of Autocad you were able to do it but I am not sure.

AutoCad 2D :: Move Radial Dimension Text Away From Lines

Mar 5, 2013

Im trying to move radial dimension text away from the dimension line so I can add in text between the dimension and dimension line.

#1 is the default style
#2 is what happens when I do "Move text only", it moves the dimension line to inside the radial and I do not want that.
#3 is how it looks when I just manually edit the dimension text
#4 is how I want it to look

#4 is a combination of dimension and a manually added leader with the dimension line removed. How can I move the dimension text on a radial without the dimension line automatically moving to the inside? Or is there another way to add in text outside the box while having the dimension text offset from the line?

Photoshop :: Why Can't I Move My Windows!?

Jun 19, 2008

Using Photoshop CS3 on Windows Vista.

Whenever I open an image in Photoshop, it's locked in the top left corner of the application window. I can't drag it anywhere.

The only way I can make it movable is to switch to the "Basic" workspace. Then if I switch back to the default workspace, it stays movable.

One option is to use Parallels on the Mac but looking for all the alternatives and potential issues before I bite the bullet.

Revit :: How To Change The Numerical Value Of A Dimension

Mar 29, 2013

I was wandering while doing a project of some construction elements if there is any way in Revit that I can change the numerical value of an dimension not with the text but with different value ? and at the same time I don't want Revit to rescale my elements. Something like in AutoCAD that I can type in any number I want and Revit won't rescale i or change the distance between them.
 
I know that I could simply use AutoCAD instead of Revit but I find it easier in general  and I really want to learn it since I'm a student.

Revit :: How To Dimension Imported 3D File

Jun 26, 2013

 I'm designing a piece of furniture in Rhino using Grasshopper.  I would like to create my measured drawings of this piece in Revit (as a way of learning the software).  I have linked the 5 components of the piece to my Revit project file (as SAT files but I could export them as something else if that would work).  All I want to do is create a single sheet showing 1 plan view, 2 elevations, 1 section and an exploded axon.  However, I cannot seem to dimension the components.  I need overall dimensions as well as the size of radii at curved corners in elevation and filleted corners in plan, and also thickness of the material used.
 
Is there something I need to do to get the dimensions to 'see' this set of objects?

Revit :: How To Dimension To End Of A Non-parallel Line

Sep 26, 2013

I need to dimension between the face of a wall and non parallel wall opposite it.  The non parallel wall turns a 90 degree corner, and it is at this corner that I want to measure perpendicular to my first wall.
 
1. Is there a way to dimension between non-parallel walls?  When you place the dimension you click on the wall at the location you want to dimension, so I don't see why Revit can't place the dimension at that point.  That dimension would be particular to that one point along the non-parallel wall.
2. I got around this by placing a reference plane and dimensioning to that, but I'd rather not do this because then if I hide the reference plane, my dimension disappears.
 
Is there another work around or am I missing a tool I don't know about?

Revit :: Mask Regions With 0mm Dimension?

Dec 29, 2013

I'm using a couple of masked regions to form symbol linework (so that it obscures background and shadows) in section.
 
In my screen family, I have a masked region that in theory could end up having a 0mm length - that obviously throws out errors.
 
The following screen grab shows the regions (at screen soffits) that are set to lock to the frame face and external wall face. Trouble is I have an instance parameter to allow the screen to fill the whole wall thickness (which also then toggles on architraves). This results in the 0mm. I have therefore done a slight 2mm overlap to avoid the issue, but this leaves a residual ovelap in the linework that looks ugly.
 
Setting the masked region to simply not display doesn't avoid the problem, Revit still 'sees' the errant 0mm.
 
Is there a way of having this masked region working in both options (ie when needed - locked to ref planes) and then not producing the error when the frame and wall are coplanar ?
