# Smart Dimensions

{% hint style="warning" %}
This page is under reconstruction
{% endhint %}

**Smart Dimensions** is a tool used in AGACAD's Wood/Metal Framing, Precast Concrete, and Smart Views applications to automatically get dimensions of elements in the view. The tool may be used while creating views automatically through the configurations of those solutions, or it could be applied in any user-created Revit view.

[**Read the in-depth Technical Documentation on Smart Dimensions here**](/common-for-several-products/smart-dimensions.md)

You can access Smart Dimensions configurations through Smart Views configuration window:

Alternatively, you can go straight to the Smart Dimensions menu and configurations:

Once you have prepared the configuration, you can apply it to any view:

Alternatively, you can add the configuration that you set in Smart Dimensions to the Smart Views configuration, and it will be applied to selected views while using the Create Views command in Smart Views

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.besmart.software/common-for-several-products/smart-views/smart-dimensions.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
