Why...dimensions

[05uurx]

ah em...

WHY!!!! cant CA dimension the overall size of buildings? I wish someone from CA would reply to this thread, its been discussed several times on this forum (and i apologize for repeating it all over again), but i havent seen an answer from CA on the other threads.

When i Auto-dim my plan, it gives me what you see in the first picture...it SKIPS RIGHT OVER THE MOST IMPORTANT PART...

The second picture shows how i think it should be...i mean, why wouldnt we want this dimension string? I've looked at many other design programs and they all include this string in thier sets...

Please, CA, tell me why, just give me a reason why and i'll shut up about it...I have a legal copy of Chief and EVERYTHING, so its ok to talk to me Check my serial # if you dont believe me
