Specific style for environment dimensions

Specific style for environment dimensions

  1. Dimension point from top holes of the shear plate to the NEAREST ENVIRONMENT  (beams' system lines)
  2. Eliminate reference to Environment beams that are NOT FRONT if we look from the same direction as the column view is created (from the picture). In other words-Environment GTA to dimension ONLY the beams that can be related to the shear plates having holes FRONT.

Thank-you for bringing this back to the forefront.

This really needs to be addressed. You could try to create a detail style with the environment objects as system lines, but I haven't had any luck making one of those feasible. Too many issues.

This is an industry standard, it has to be included even with a smaller count of votes.
