Objects moving when dimension is edited

Hi All.

I have a question regarding dimensioning objects to "lock" them into place in Revit 2019. What I am trying to accomplish is several porch column objects need to be 3" from the side edge of the concrete porch slab and 1/4" from the front edge of the porch slab. I setup the columns roughly into place then linear dim. them. I set the 1/4" dim. first then the 3" dimension. Of course it is not exactly 3" so I select column to enable dim. editing and change the dim to 3" but when I do the 1/4" dimension is changed one was by a few inches but the other side column moved 4' 3" away? If I try and lock the first dim. then the other dim cannot be changed when object is selected.

I have tried this several times and the results are always different so I am not sure why this is happening.

I have searched everywhere for ideas but nothing I read is helping the issue.

Any thoughts and suggestions welcomed!

Cheers!

Rick...

Have you any hidden Constraints?  Reveal Constraints to see.

There are no constraints for the column object it is really just a simple 8"x8"x7' object. As I stated when I try to constrain 1 dim. the other dim. cannot be changed which is odd to me because what if I really wanted to constrain in one direction?

I know what you are talking about now. Open the Family and change its Category. For instance, from Column to Generic Model. Reload and test.  Different behavior.  No explanation why though.
