Description
Sets the line weight that designates thickness of the tick mark. You can choose from
a list of values defined in Revit Architecture or define your own.
Extends the dimension line beyond the intersection of the witness lines to the spe-
cified value. When you set this value, this is the size at which the dimension line
plots, if you are printing at 100 percent.
Controls the extent of the dimension line beyond the flipped arrow if the arrow flips
on the ends of the dimension string. This parameter is only enabled when the tick
mark type parameter is set to an arrow type. See
Mark on page 236.
Switches between the fixed gap functionality and the fixed dimension line function-
ality.
If Witness Line Control is set to Fixed to Dimension Line, this parameter becomes
available. Specifies the length of all witness lines in the dimensions. When you set
this value, this is the size at which the witness line plots, if you are printing at 100
percent.
If Witness Line Control is set to Gap to Element, this parameter sets the distance
between the witness line and element being dimensioned.
Sets the extension of a witness line beyond the tick mark. When you set this value,
this is the size at which the witness line plots, if you are printing at 100 percent.
You can select any of the annotations symbols loaded in the project. The centerline
symbol appears above the witness lines that reference the centerlines of family in-
stances and walls. If the witness line does not reference a center plane, you cannot
place a centerline symbol above it.
Changes the line pattern of the witness lines of the dimension, if the dimension
references are the centerlines of family instances and walls. If the references are not
at the centerline, this parameter does not affect the witness line pattern.
Changes the tick mark at the ends of the centerline of a dimension.
Designates the tick mark display for inner witness lines when adjacent segments of
a dimension line are too small for arrows to fit. When this occurs, the ends of the
short-segment string flip, and the inner witness lines display the designated interior
tick mark. This parameter is only enabled when the tick mark type parameter is set
to an arrow type. See Changing the Dimension Line Tick Mark
Specify settings for ordinate dimensions. This parameter is available when the Di-
mension String Type parameter is set to Ordinate. For more information, see
an Ordinate Linear Dimension Style
Sets the color of dimension lines. You can choose from a list of colors defined in
Revit Architecture or define your own. The default value is black.
