Wish there was a toggle to turn off dimension/extension to particular beams. I place beams on plans for roof reference that won’t actually be used. I can make the beam hidden and turn off extract in model, but has to be retracted for dimensions.
Take a look at using the Dimension Point command – this will allow you to skip over items when placing dimensions.
