Re: Can't get dimension lines to work In Sweet Home 3D, no item is connected to an other one, except for a set of walls created together. That behavior simplifies the management of modified and deleted objects because they aren't bound to other ones, and I don't feel like users complain that much about that. On the other side it gives users the full freedom to do what they want with each item in the plan. The length of walls is measured between their connecting points (the points with a little arrow at each end). I know that it may not be the length you're interested by in real life, but Sweet Home 3D has no mean to guess if you prefer to display the length between the connecting points of the current wall, the length on its left side or the length on its right side. It depends on the thickness and the angle of a future wall that you didn't draw yet! Conclusion : you should create dimensions for documentation at the end of your project. By the way, the help proposed in Sweet Home 3D is much more detailled than its user's guide available on the web. ---------------------------------------- Emmanuel Puybaret, Sweet Home 3D creator |
