NewDimension in ViewSection

[Anonymous]

Dear developpers: 
We are trying to create an application in Revit. This application generates sections for each door or window project. This works well. Now we want to dim each section view of the door or window. We get the faces of the geometry, origin, etc.. But when we insert the dimension in each section view, it does not appear. If we draw DetailLines with the dimension line, they are offset from the door or window. 
The question is: 
¿Draw dimensions in a section view is like drawing them in plan view? 
¿Or do we need a transformation? 

However, the dimensions have created and we can see them with Snoop DB.
We days working on this issue and we have not gotten results. 
Thank you very much.

Dear pmonton,

Have you looked at the RevitLookup and The Building Coder Samples demonstrating dimension creation?

http://thebuildingcoder.typepad.com/blog/2012/09/create-dimension-between-two-lines.html

Does that help?

Have you tried creating the dimensions manually? Does that work? If so, have you tried analysing the differences between your manually and programmatically generated dimensions? There must be something different. Maybe you can recreate that difference programmatically as well to fix the problem.

Cheers,
