Since before I started using Revit, there has been the problem of placing a dimension across a break in a view, like a vertical dimension in a wall section. When you do so, you cannot move or adjust the dimension text as it seems to be "stuck" in the broken area.
Well now that we have these dimension overrides where you click on the dimension text to apply an override, or a prefix or suffix, you also cannot apply any of these while the dimension text is stuck in the view break.
Before, you went to the dimension instance properties to add a prefix or a suffix, but now you can't even do that if the dimension text is stuck in the break.
And it's quite a pain in the rear to have to remove all your view breaks to be able to dimension your view properly, then apply the breaks again and have to re-adjust everything to get it to fit on the sheet.
I have submitted a support request on this.
