Can't Edit Dimension Value w/ Multiple Items Selected

[edorton]

Anyone know why I cannot edit the value of a dimension when I have multiple items selected? This is happening every time and in every project. To show it's not a type or constraint issue, the screenshots provided are in a brand new project using the standard revit template and detail lines. 

I'm thinking there must be some sort of system setting because I was using Revit 2023 when the problem started so I decided to finally update to 2025 in an effort to fix it but I am still having the same issue. 

Thanks!

Because if you were to change the dimension value on the right, Revit wouldn't know if your intention is to move the middle line or the right line.

@edorton  I do not recall that there has been a Revit version that allowed users to do what you have described (edit value of multiple dims at once) unless those dimension strings are associated with a global parameter
