Join Brian Myers for an in-depth discussion in this video Creating dimensioning labels, part of Revit Structure 2013 Essential Training.
In this exercise, we are going to learn how to use our Dimensioning tools.…And in order to be able to do this we are going to dimension the lower half of our building down here.…So we are going to place the string of dimensions that's going to go from here all the way on over.…In fact we will place three different strings of dimensions.…So let's go ahead and zoom in here on the lower half of our building.…Next, dimensions are annotation objects, two-dimensional objects it only show up in the view that you place them in.…So as a result of that because are annotation objects we are going to come up here to the…Annotate Tab and then, find our different dimensioning tools.…
One dimension I want to place first before we place our dimension string going across,…is to show off this little angular tool here.…What it's going to allow us to do is actually put an angular dimension sort of like with…the preview there showing us.…So if we select on Angular and then, we can kind of look around and see if we can find…
