Revit Structure 2008. For addendums and sketches we started duplicating as dependant. Then drag the view onto a new sketch border. But after adjusting the crop to focus on the changed area, if the crop crossed a dimension it automatically hides it. Is there a toggle to turn this off or an easy work-around? I thought about drawing detail lines and arrows but because it's dependant those detail lines and arrows show on the final view. I hope this makes sense. If not, then let me know and I'll try to explain this better. Thanks in advance.

Here's a screen capture of the problem. Let me explain what I was trying to do. I have a plan showing the layout of joists. I've then taken a dimension with tiny text (cause you can't override dim text) and shown the span of the joists. Then with text, I've written the type of joists and the spacing. eg: 750 DP OWSJ @ 1200 MAX. The dimension line is very long because all the joists are the same along that line. But if I crop across that line it disappears. This is really for an Addendum which is supposed to be snapshot of the actual drawing so that is why I'm concerned. Thanks for your help, I appreciate it! JB

maybe I don't quite know what your talking about but try going into view properties and uncheck text crop about half way down. It got me for a while. Hope this helps

I have read of someone creating their own dimension style in the family editor. It shouldn't be too hard to do. You have your constraints to set extension lines, create tick marks or arrows or whatever you want. Slight problem will be the text though. Need to import that from a dxf/dwg file, which is a little work, but it's possible.
