Learn how to add half-inch drawing dimensions in the kitchen, fireplace and the guest bathroom in a Jack and Jill layout with Anodim's 12. Discover the importance of these dimensions along with a guideline on adding dimensions inside each of the viewport areas.
Key Insights
- Adding half-inch drawing dimensions in the kitchen, fireplace and the guest bathroom in a Jack and Jill layout serves an important purpose that will be revealed later.
- Anodim's 12, a dimension style, should be made the current layer before proceeding to add dimensions at the one inch equals a foot area in each viewport.
- There are three different dimension styles - tick tick 48, tick tick 24, and tick tick 12, which are 48 times, 24 times, and 12 times larger than the default respectively.

I hope you've been successful placing some dimensions for the half-inch scale drawing information into each of the viewport areas. Now again there is method to the madness because I want to be teaching you something in a few minutes that's really important and that's the reason why we are adding half-inch drawing dimensions not only in the kitchen but also in the fireplace and the guest bathroom in the Jack and Jill. So given the logic that you don't know about yet what I'd like to do next is to go to Anodim's 12 make that the current layer and I'm also going to go to the annotate and I will choose tick 12 as my current dimension style.
So what we're going to be doing next is similar to what we did before in that we're going to be going into each of the enlarged areas and putting in dimensions that will now be at the one inch equals a foot area and feel free to go over the same thing you did before however you'd like to do it is fine I just want us to have dimensions in each of those viewport edge areas so I'm going to say a linear dimension from the end of here to the end of here place it here I'm going to continue to there I'm going to do another linear dimension from the end of the herringbone pattern down to the end of the opening place it here I will continue other side of the opening other side of the herringbone if you'd like go over to the window if you'd like to add some more dimensions to the inside of the fireplace again zoom in to make sure you're getting the geometry and not the grip lines and I can place that here and so I'm going to go down if you would please and do the same kind of thing in the kitchen the guest bath and the jack and jill area but before you go on and do it yourself I would like to bring something to your attention if you look at the dimensions you can see how much larger the 48 are than the 24 than the 12 because remember we have three different dimension styles tick 48 tick 24 and tick 12 and as you'd expect the tick 48 are 40 times larger than the default the 24 are 24 times larger and the 12 are 12 times larger which is why these dimension styles look different to one another so again I'm going to zoom back and if you would please put in some dims 12 inside each of these areas I'll be pausing this video and then we'll come back and we will all have some dimensions with the tick 12 and the 24 inside each of those enlarged areas
