[#1]

Can we change the dimension string type continuous to other line type without Override Graphics in View>By Elements option in Revit?

[#2]

I don't believe that there is any other method of accomplishing this. Could you elaborate a bit on what you are trying to achieve or as to why this is needed?

[#3]

Sometimes we need optional doors & windows which have to dimensioning in hidden dimension string in a building plan. In that case we have to override dimension string to make hidden but it is painful to do this individually. Is there any method to do by typically.

[#4]

There does not seem to be any way to change them all at once - even if you use 'Select All Instances In Entire Project', you can only set the Element Overrides per View. So no-go on that idea.

As an alternative, perhaps you can build the 'hidden' dimension into the Door/Window Families. You can draw the line via Symbolic Lines (on a Subcategory so you can set the line style) and the create a Label (embedded Generic Annotation) to report the desired length. You can then tie the Visibility to a Yes/No parameter (default off) so you can turn this on as needed. Let us know if this is at all a possibility or if you need more information.
