    U can overwrite “replace with text” by right clicking in the input box, go to Insert Unicode control character and then select US, unit separator. Keep up the great work!

    Hello to everyone, those who think that the tutos will give them CAD/DAO knowledge, ask the teacher to pass on to you from Lesson tutos. Very good videos for usage tips.
    Keep making new tutorials, thank you and don't abandon us.
    Good work

    The easier method is right click the input box then select US.

    We can also change the dimension value by another option click on replace text option & give the value what ever u want then right click choose LRM option then click on ok, then the dimension text will changes

  • @cliftonmann8713
    @cliftonmann8713 ปีที่แล้ว

    What i would like is a custom dimension that knows if it is drawn to wall face, face of core, wall center-line, etc. Then you could set up an automatic suffix such as "WC" when that custom dimension type is used. You could create a dimension for each one.

    The BIM managers out there aint gonna like their users learning the symbol trick. We literally ban this in most offices as it leads to major issues later on when we construct.
    I have a dynamo script specifically for hunting down and resetting dimensions containing symbols just to deal with these people haha!

      Hey, i was just wondering why people would fake the dimensions.. could you give an example?

    • @MikeTierneyCreations
      @MikeTierneyCreations 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yeah, because they don't understand the ramifications I'm faking the dimensions. Aussie Guru you are hilarious

    • @AussieBIMGuru
      @AussieBIMGuru 4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      @@leramdoname usually people do this when they're in a rush and want a dimension to read a particular value. The most common reason is we need a clearance to be achieved, but the model isn't achieving it. Rather than fix up the model they just fake the dimension and move on - now it's the builder's problem. Terrible solution!

    • @maiseichik
      @maiseichik 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      ​@@AussieBIMGuru I'm a builder. And do the same trick with REVIT dimensions every day. When you go to DIMENSION TEXT menu, select REPLACE WITH TEXT and with right click in the text box go to INERT UNICODE CONTROL CHARACTER...select US - UNIT SEPARATOR. Done! Now you can write whatever you want, easy peasy.
      Why? We do a lot of prefabs and newer sure everything fits...so we do one prefabricated piece adjustable. A little bit longer then in the model to be cut & fit on site. The dimension in that case usually is followed by text "ADDED 2 FT FOR ADJ." and does not require any tricks.

  • @WaveformModifier
    @WaveformModifier 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Wouldn't be easier to just use the build-in "Insert Unicode control character" than some shady website to force a dimension override?

    Anyone knows how to dimension a site plan. The lines are not parallels to the house. Align will not work.

    a designer who has direction from a sponsor needs to know what he or she needs to do for the client.
    Sponsor: order ----sketch
    Designer --- Modeling
    Designer --- Client: Proposals with variants
    Customer choice: Firm control of the development of the complete project
    ok

  • @datatran07
    @datatran07 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Good to round small fraction, but don't use this trick for entire building project. This causes things don't fit in the model. This is dirt trick use in Revit Bim.

  • @mmaassoouudd

    Actually we can use zero space character with right click on textbox. It is better and easy I think,

      CAD was great in its time, but we gotta move on to BIM now bro. Less tedious work and a centralized project file

  • @johnalgeo1205
    @johnalgeo1205 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Please do not force dimensions projects. As we share models, other folks are depending on that our models are accurate. I have received RFI saying your dimension is 100mm but when we dimension it comes to 98mm.

  • @MikeTierneyCreations
    @MikeTierneyCreations 4 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    I have enjoyed watching many of your videos, but as a mater of principle, I am disliking this video. I firmly believe there is no real reason to fake the value of a dimension. I have had to clean up too many of other people's mistakes in AutoCAD, and now in Revit too from where people tried to fake it

    • @samuelbahgat8866
      @samuelbahgat8866 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Michael Tierney ( usually we need this not to false measure but when you want to mention wall length equal 20 m and you don’t have space at your plan so we cut and do dimensions and adjust it )

  • @aarons1817
    @aarons1817 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Revit doesn't allow you to change dimension values for very good reason. It's a terrible practice. They corrected a problem that was present in autocad. People ought to learn to model accurately or don't model at all.
