I have a problem with dimensions. I'm trying to move the dimension value to the center of the line, but I can't make it to center by itself.

I have tryied to search from the forums, but as I can see it, it seems to be impossible and I have to do it manually.

Your question is not clear.  The text should normally center over the dimension line.  You can control how far it is above the dimension line by the text offset setting but I don't believe you can set the text to break the dimensio line.

Sorry that my question wasn't clear.

But actually that was the answer what I was looking for.

Now I know that it is not possible to put the text to the middle of the dimension line.

 

Thank you for your help

I have a question about moving revit model for a project I am drawing. It was not drawn in the true northing and easting coordinates in AutoCad. I now have the information of where each corner of the building should be located (northing and easting). How do I move the building with in the file so each corner of the building is aligned to the true northing and easting coordinates? This is a task that is easily accomplished in AutoCAD, but I cannot figure out how to do it in Revit.

This is much easier in 2010.  AUGI|AEC EDGE

There is a very good article in there on locating your project.
