Text below or above Dimension lines Disappear

[bassem_assad]

I am working on Revit Architecture 2009 at the moment..and I am facing a problem with Dimensions.

If I added a text below the dimension line or a prefix or suffix, and go and edit this dimension by adjusting it or editing the witness line to add extra dimensions, the text that I have put disappeares, and i have to go back and add the text again.

Does anyone knows a soultion for that, to lock the text so it doesn't disappear?

Thanks,

Unfortunately, it's an issue in 2009. See this post from my blog...

It's been fixed in 2010, but of course that doesn't help your project in 2009.
