Dimension error

Anonymous — Wed, 16 Jun 2021 08:41:57 GMT

All dimensions of my drawing are different from Actual Value
The correct thing would be that all the dimensions have the same value in Actual Value.

You have selected a chain/multiple strings dimension...that 914 corresponds to 1 dimension in that chain. Zoom out and check which one it is...otherwise use a single dimension string ... double click that and verify. The values would/should match

Thank you for replying me.
I used a single dimension and the error persist.

...1140 = 1140? edit: aw you mean the actual value field isn't corresponding as expected... No idea really, never seen it, maybe try restarting Revit & audit the file...

Did anyone ever figure this out? I'm having the same issue only since upgrading a 2018 model to 2021 version.

Hello and thank you for posting.

If you have not tried already, Here are some suggestions.

Does the problem happen when opening the same model on a different pc?

Opening with Audit.

Does the wrong value always show as 0?

Is Revit 2021 using the most recent build?

How to tie the Build number with the Revit update

Also, you tried clearing your %temp% directory and rebooting the computer?

Hello everyone.

I would like to know that how can I fix the dimension text error in Revit. Actual measurements value is always different with "use actual value" in dimension text.

How's about the dimension text error in your laptop. Now, I am facing with this problem. If you got some ways, please share me.
