Has anybody figured out how to edit the perimeter dimension to the exact numbers? I can't find any dialog to enter or show the lot size.

Click on the Perimeter line. When the dimension appears, click on the dimension. Set the dimension to what you want.
If you double-click on the perimeter line, a Terrain Specification box will appear. Click on Polyline.Last edited by daydreamer; 11-25-2007 at 07:52 AM.

No dimensions appear by clicking the permimeter line and the dimension tools seem to only apply to the structure.

Try clicking on Fill Window or press F6. Then using the Arrow pointer click on a perimeter line.

Did you get anything like this when you clicked the dimension?

When you open the terrain perimeter in Pro, you should get a tab for the "selected line" that lets you type in exact numbers. Also, you can click on the "num style" button to change the display to bearings.

If you double-click on the perimeter line you should see the Terrain Specification Box that Kilgore has attached in the previous post. Then click on the "Selected Line tab".
