DIMENSIONING AN ELEVATION PLAN
-
HI,
I'm finding when I am dimensioning my elevation plan, that the dimension tool is accurate when I am dragging my dimensions on a flat surface, but am finding now that if there is a section of the building sticking out and say I start from the ground at the protruding section and move to the top which is a recessed part of the building, the dimension tool is reading the model still in the 3D terms, so I am not getting true vertical dimensions but rather point A to point B dimensions within 3d space. I have my model with perspective off. Are there any other settings I'm missing to prevent this from happening, so I can get the true dimensions on my elevations? much thanks,

Hi Keea,
This is a known issue (maybe would not call it a bug but a missing feature the development team did not think about when creating the dimension tool for LO).
