    Question Temporary dimensions problem

    I’m having a problem with my temporary dimensions. All my automatic & manual dimensions locate to framing which is good, but my temporary dimensions locate to Gib. Could anyone help me, how do I make temporary dimensions snap to framing please.

    What is "Gib" please? If your dimension defaults - Locate Objects is set to "Main Layer Surface" then your auto and temp dims should locate that way as well. That is the way I have my X1 set and that is the way mine works.

    I assume you mean the outside of the wall surface or sheetrock by Gib. They won't snap to framing in alot of instances and there's nothing you can do to make them. Sorry.

    Assuming you're using X1, go to CAD >> Dimensions >> Temporary Dimension Preferences. You can change settings for temporary dimensions there.
