I am trying a new method for creating my assemblies and drawing and having some issues with smart dimensions. I have a drawing that I am working on and trying to dimension. It is a small building, so my base model is a part of all the wall/floor/roof structure then I have an assembly that adds in doors and windows and various other items. I have several configurations set up to show each wall so I can create a framing drawing for that wall. But when I select an edge of say a 2x4 to dimension, SW selects the edge of the exterior sheathing which is hidden. Or if I have 1 long wall that I have made a cut in for an opening, selecting the top plate gives me the full length of the plate prior to the cut, not just the section that remains. I have attached an example. The dimensions in black are ones that I created by selecting 2 different edges, the light colored ones are by just selecting the edge. Previously, just selecting the edge would give a dimension of the geometry displayed. Is there a way I can change what SW is selecting?
Thanks!
