Visio 2003- Architectual dimension lines

[diamond]

When laying out floor plans, how do you get the dimentions guides to flip
over so that you can dimention the outside of the right hand and bottom walls
of the floorplan? It will not let me flip it like most normal shapes. As it
stands now I can only dimention those walls on the top and left of the walls
which puts me inside the actual rom on the floorplan. Help!

Some possibilities:

- Right-click a wall shape and choose "Flip wall on reference line"
- Right-click a wall shape and choose "Add dimension"
- Select a dimension shape, then pull on the yellow handle that gives the
tooltip; "Change dimension height". It's usually located at an end, where
the arrow hits the extension line. You can pull this to the other side of
the dimension "axis".
