While taking the Revit Architecture Fundamentals class, we stumbled upon the fact that Revit isn't able to put imperial and metric dimensions on one string of dimensions. This missing feature almost made my boss ask for a Revit refund!

Our work is done in British Columbia, Canada, on Vancouver Island. The majority of municipalities here require the site plan to be metric, and to show plans in mettric. Our standard now is to show both imperial and metric on all plans, site included.

 Please Revit makers, and the powers that be. Make available in a future Revit update.

 

Thanks

Tim
