Hello all! I have a space with different curved walls. When trying to place dimension lines for the radius of each one, they all have different center points. Is there a way to get them to all measure from the same one point? Picture attached.

Yes, but it'd change the geometry. Imagine each of those curved walls completed to make a circle. The radius is the distance to the center of that circle. Making all of those radii dimensions meet in the same spot would either change the distance of the curved walls to that point, or change how much that wall is curved.
If you change the walls to have the same center point then the wall layout is changed. Are you aware of that?
I don't understand the question. Sounds like you are asking how to dimension? If the radial walls don't originate from the same center-point, then they don't originate from the same center-point. You can't make them.
....actually, you could make 'em all originate from the same center-point. Change the design.

How much the walls are curved? HUH?

Trying to keep the explanation simple without getting into arc lengths and angles and their relationship to the radius...

The explanation isn't even that convoluted. The design dictates where the radial wall center-points are located. If the OP want's all the radial walls in the building to originate from the same center point, then redesign the building.

I understand... but their post implies that they didn't understand that relationship. So rather than using terminology they also likely wouldn't understand, I used layman's terms.
