You need to do the following to use the automatic dimensioning:

  1. add the proper fixed name parameters to your object:
    1. wallhole size: ac_wallhole_width, ac_wallhole_height
    2. reveal size: ac_reveal_width, ac_reveal_height
    3. unit size: ac_unit_width, ac_unit_height
    4. egress size: ac_egress_width, ac_egress_height
    5. leaf size: ac_leaf_width, ac_leaf_height
  2. fill all nominal sizes with the proper values in paramscript
  3. add hotspots to the objects
    • each hotspot must be seen on the actual view or schedule for automatic dimensions
    • each hotspot must have a unique id
    • horizontal and vertical distance of the hotspots must be equal with the length stored in the corresponding parameter value
