View Full Version : 2009 - Groups, Ceilings, and Temporary Dimensions

Hi all. I've encountered a quirk that is driving me crazy!

I have a group, that represents a building core. Basically, it includes walls, ceilings, lights, and doors. Nothing special.

The group has 28 different ceiling elements in it... Lots of bulkheads and stuff like that.

When ever I edit the group so that it includes 29 ceiling objects, all of the sudden, the temporary dimensions do not turn on automatically. I have to click the "Activate Dimensions" button.

When I remove any ceiling, so that the total comes back to 28, all of the sudden, the temporary dimensions work again.

Has anyone else encountered an issue such as this?

Thanks in advance.

Bryan

Just at a certain point Revit decides - this will take to long - and you have to use activate dimensions. Nothing wrong. Just they way it works.
