Dimensions deleted after floor pattern edit

I have been having this issue when I create a floor pattern (for the entire floor plan) and the dimensions get deleted after I make a change to the pattern. The pattern itself is not very elaborate, but if I add a new line or new sub-region to the pattern then all the dimensions on the entire plan are deleted. However, if I adjust an existing line, say align it to a wall that moved, then the dimensions remain.

 

I am using the "edit division" option under the floor that I created parts from.

 

Is it better to just use a filled region for this so that the dimensions do not disappear? The model view gets much slower if I had a very large region with so many different closed loops...

It's hard to visualize what you are describing. Can you post a picture or something?

So here we altered the left end of the building to remove some rooms. The (1) image shows how it was dimensioned before and (2) shows how the dimensions disappeared after the adjustment of the floor pattern.

You could consider using separate finish floors, instead of divided Parts. Might make the dimensioning a bit more stable.

Maybe I'm misreading the issue, but why not just pull your dimensions from Ref. Planes to which the modeled elements are Aligned and Locked to?

That could be hundreds and hundreds of Ref. Planes...……..

I would just make individual finish floors and dimension them.

I think the divided Parts thing is causing the dimensions to get deleted after edits are made.

That is an interesting idea. It might be a nightmare for worksharing if you have hundreds of different floors though? Or are you referring to some other way? And they would show up in every view instead of just on floor finish plans like my office does. I like parts because you can choose not to show them but still show the floor as a whole.

 

I hate that dimensioning is facing this kind of error with a built-in feature that is meant for splitting objects like floors...

Easy to manage.

All Finish Floors on Workset which is only turned on where needed, like on Finish Plans.

Same for Finish Walls.

That could definitely work. I wasn't thinking of worksets in this case. Another related issue I have faced with parts is that when I add new boundary lines, the material of all the parts for that object revert back to their original settings instead of the unchecked option (material by original) with their new material. This could probably save a lot of time with editing even
