I have always started pulling a wall and then enter the length I want the wall to be...TADA! Revit is suddenly not letting me input the wall length. So, I tried drawing the line, annotating, then changing the dim. No can do. It must be something in my Revit settings, but I'm no genius. I've been using revit for 4 years with no problem in this area. What am I missing? I'm in the middle of a project, out of town, must finish today, flying back tomorrow...PLEASE HELP!

Are you sure the wall is not joining to another wall - above, below or turned off?

You could try to view the constrains of that wall.
