Dim Break for Revit

[steven.tannerBeca]

I would love to see an option to break a dimension line in Revit just like we can do in AutoCAD.

In AutoCAD we can use the "DIM Break" command, which will add a break in the dimension line. 

This is so lines don't run thru dimension lines and the drawings present correctly.

Revit should have had this feature years ago, but never has. If I want to replicate a dimension break in Revit, I have to do this manually. 

Allot of people would love to have Dim Break in Revit.

I would also like to add that this not be a "true dimension" when converted back to CAD. Causes grief with some CAD checkers looking for overridden dims. It's simply used to augment the design process to cover variations without redoing entire details. Being visually identifiable would be most helpful

Dim Break would be a true dimension. Dim Break allows a gap to appear as part of the dimension line.

I should have looked at the images first. Sorry. The idea is nice though

This definitely needs to be a feature in Revit. The complete lack of control we architects are given over drafting and drawing appearance in Revit is frankly unacceptable. There are all kinds of graphic communication problems in Revit that were never a problem in CAD. We really need Autodesk to dig into these critical drafting features. Technical drawing appearance is very important for drawing clarity, especially on complex architectural floor plans where a lot of information needs to be communicated clearly.

AutoCAD has had DIMBREAK for about 19 years.  It astounds me that Autodesk cannot, or has chosen to, not develop this function for Revit.  This consistently causes problems in the field for framers on complex designs.

What can be done to move this to the forefront?
