Hi all,

Seems like tagging dimensions over reference planes is nomore available in 2010. or am i wrong?

Don't really have much time to explore 2010 ribbon interface but it definitely slow down my speed, guess have to look into shortcut keys as I reckon that is a good way to change my work of working revit in the future rather than icon based.

A good tip will be much appreciated...thanks in advance

What I really mean is putting dimension over reference planes and use them as construction lines or something

Used to do that mainly to equal divisions so I can copy things such as windows/ stiffeners equally to distance or between columns.

Seems like that does not work in 2010

Ale02, i really don't see any problem with dimension in ref. planes in 2010, it's the same in 2009....

guys...thanks for the tips...

managed to solve the issues as I was clicking linear insteads of aligned dimensions..

I am pretty much of an acad user and think as an acad user too...

btw, what the different between aligned dimension with linear dimension..seems like linear dimension cannot impose on reference plane...

Regarding the change to the 2010 ribbon,  try looking at this website:

http://www.nichitecture.com/downloads/Where%20is%20my%20command%20in%20Revit%20Architecture%202010.html

It was very useful to me when I was trying to find a tool in the new format back when we first made the switch from 2009.  After some time, I have gotten more used to the ribbon, even if it is a bit clunky.  Another handy trick is to right click on some of your commonly used tools (once you find them), and then "Add to Quick Access Toolbar". Any tool that you assign like that will always remain visible no matter which tab is active at the moment.  Keyboard shortcuts help quite a bit too.

Good luck with the switch!
