DimGen is a powerful, intelligent Add-In for Autodesk® Revit® designed specifically for structural engineers, BIM modelers, and draftsmen to fully automate structural dimensioning, alignment, and geometry management.

In large-scale and mega projects, dimensioning columns, walls, drops, and foundations can consume dozens of hours of tedious manual work. DimGen eliminates this effort entirely with single-click automation—even on Sheet Models with Linked Elements!

Key Features & Capabilities:

• Col & Axis: Automatically dimension and tag structural columns and grid axes with intelligent reference detection and orientation awareness.

• Fraction Remover: Eliminate odd fractions by rounding column-to-grid offsets to clean increments (50 mm or 100 mm). Moves columns accurately in XY while strictly preserving elevations and family types.

• Drop & Col: Center and align drop panels with their corresponding columns automatically in both position and rotation. Supports both Floor and Family-based drop panels.

• Split Boundary: Instantly split disconnected islands in a floor or foundation slab sketch into independent slab elements. Seamlessly preserves all instance parameters, join geometry, cutting orders, and span direction symbols.

• Shaft Openings: Separate multi-region shaft openings into individual shafts (Split Shaft) with full constraint retention, plus rapid automatic shaft dimensioning (Shaft Dimension).

• Full Linked Model Support: Dimension columns, walls, and foundations directly across linked models without having to copy/monitor or modify the links.

• Rotated & Orthogonal Elements: Full mathematical support for skewed grids, rotated columns, and complex geometry.

Compatibility:

Fully native and optimized for Autodesk Revit 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025, 2026, and 2027 (.NET 4.8 & .NET 8.0).
