Use for defining whether dimensions and dimension lines are displayed when you select a column or a beam.
When this advanced option is set to TRUE (default), Tekla Structures displays the dimensions and dimension lines.
Dimensions and dimension lines are displayed when you select a single object, or when you select multiple objects by picking them. The dimensions are not displayed if a command is running, or if you select multiple objects with area selection.
When this advanced option is set to FALSE , the dimensions and dimension lines are not displayed.
This advanced option is user specific and the setting is saved in options.bin under user folder. Restart Tekla Structures to activate the new value.
Note: When direct modification is switched on, the standard object dimensions and dimension lines are always hidden, regardless of these settings. Only the direct modification dimensions are then shown. This makes it easier to know which dimensions can be edited.
