That's an engineering drawing..... just too precise!
We architect's would have a few references to standards like "BAKE PER STANDARD BAKING TIME".

As of RAC 2010 you can dimension between the pickle and the onion catergory. Start the aligned dimension tool from the annotation tab, pick the pickle then pick the onion (tab to select the correct onion), then place the dimension line. It's easy ! If you want to dimension from the pickle to 'nothing' then you need to create a reference plane. See attached image.

Revitiscrap should have no problem then.... maybe he will write about it in his blog. It will give him something to do during the day when he is working evenings at BK.

I don't know what this hubbub is about. Obviously you guys haven't invested the neccessary time in a parametric hamburger.
Help yourselves. Don't like pickles? TURN THEM OFF. Want to inspect your handiwork? RAISE THE BUN.
edit: how could I forget... thicken the patty from a quarter-pounder to a half-pounder--or MORE!

Whats funny, is the BK he'll be working in, was probably architected in some parametric form, so everyday He'll be working in the building looking at someone elses Revit (or sim) project.
Also, in the burger you need a "beef material" parameter, so you can change it to a soy patty, or turkey...but you gotta make a new material too though. And rendering would require an upclose jpeg photo of said burgers to map on. mmmmm.

You just sound frusturated...Revit is such a good program once you get past the learning curve.
It shouldnt take you that long to delete a mullion...
I also find it humurous how many people agree with you by looking at all the members on your website.
Good luck with your AutoCAD with this fast growing industry standard of Revit

yeah i felt that way with revit for the first couple months, I wanted to go back to my comfort zone in autocad. Now in hindsight after using revit for a few years...I am amazed I ever preffered autocad to being with. hahahaha. Autocad seems caveman now.
Heck im not even using Revit right now and I still miss it.

Between hate and love there is only a thin line.

I See a lot of reaction to this post but as a beginner trying to learn this program myself, I can understand the frustration as well as beginning to see the potential benefit of using it. Every now and then, a small "victory" makes me realize that with more experience, this will bea powerful tool for me to use, but then there is the other side of the equation. Mulitiple sequence commands that accomplish one very small step in the process of trying to accomplish something really basic. An overall sense that the program is inflexible. I feel that it shouldn't take reading and studying a three hundred page manual just to get to the point where I can draw a rainscreen wall assembly.
I have similar frustrations with having taken a Revit class and not gotten far despite having worked at it and asking plenty of questions. It seems to me that aside from being a very large program, that gaining quick access to basic information is difficult and so, many beginners (like me) are frustrated with the software. Throw in many years of dealing with the Autocads and Architectural Desktop, I can see why many firms, especially small companies are migrating to other software.
Maybe a better reference would help. Anyone want to make suggestions?
