There...That's been "gone" for awhile. There isn't much difference between Weak and Strong anymore, not that I've noticed anyway. The strong preset named reference planes, like Top, Right, Left and Center (Left/Right) are used to allow dimensions to "jump" from reference location in families and walls.Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14230364057800484763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9240097.post-87135980952160764422018-11-05T17:45:34.237-08:002018-11-05T17:45:34.237-08:00Hi, has anybody noticed that weak reference planes...Hi, has anybody noticed that weak reference planes can be found by the dimension tool without using the Tab key? I don't know if this is the result of a recent upgrade. I am using Revit 2019, but today I have tested this also in Revit 2016, and I can't get the old behaviour to work, that we had to use the Tab key to find a weak reference with the dimension tool. That's what all the Help documents and threads say, but it is not working in my computer. I have tried separating reference planes by several feet, but nothing brings back the behavior that is explained in the Help documents.Alfredo Medinanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9240097.post-61483728976831735242010-11-02T14:18:58.673-07:002010-11-02T14:18:58.673-07:00Still there but the title must have changed at som...Still there but the title must have changed at some point slightly because the url has changed.
