The length of walls is measured between their connecting points (the points with a little arrow at each end). On the other side it gives users the full freedom to do what they want with each item in the plan. 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. In Sweet Home 3D, no item is connected to an other one, except for a set of walls created together. I must be doing something wrong, but I can't figure out what. Move a wall or change a wall length, everything falls down:ĭimension lines get disconnected from their features, cornersĪre no longer right angles, walls come disconnected at what The basic problem I keep running into is that I rarely doĮverything exactly right the first time. Is there any documentation for people who don't already Paradigm, because I'm constantly surprised by the behavior I Something a lot more basic that explains the underlying I've read through the users guide, but apparently I need Thatġ) the inside dimensions don't change when the wall moves.Ģ) walls keep coming "disconnected" from each other when I Wall positions to get the required inside dimensions. So, I created inside dimension lines and then tried to adjust Means, but it doesn't seem to correspond to inside dimensions. It's not clear what the "length" of a wall really What I'm trying to do is create rooms with specified insideĭimensions. That correspond to distance between features on the drawing? How do I get dimension lines to be "real" dimensions Length and position that are unrelated to anything else on theĭrawing. It seems as if dimension lines aren't dimensioning actualĭrawing features, it's like they're just lines of arbitrary Measuring distance to a point in "empty space". When a wall moves, the dimension line endpointĭoesn't move when the wall does - it just sits there uselessly I create a dimension line showing the inside distance between Stay attached to the features they're measuring.
