One dimension line for multiple openings

In order to use efficiently the space in drawing sheet, we have improved the dimension lines for openings in Shop drawing when multiple openings are inserted in the same element. We are now using one dimension line for multiple openings with the same type instead of adding a dimension line for each opening inserted in element. 

The option that enables the opening dimension lines in Shop drawing can be found in Shop drawing template settings. 

In the example below, we are setting up the dimension lines for opening in a Shop drawing template. The opening dimension line is activated in the Main drawing sheet for Elevation Front view. The opening dimension line in this example is set up to be displayed only in the Top side of the element after the Shop drawing has been generated.
