Dimension to wall finished face

Revit
13

@Ewan_Opie @awilliams

Sorry but how would I go about amending this so that it takes a list of lines (3 lines one for each dimension) and 3 lists of elements to be dimensioned?

I thought I could create a custom node and just change the lacing but that doesn’t work. How does lacing working with Python nodes within a custom node? Is this possible or is it best to modify the Python itself?

Thanks
