Matchline/Dependent Duplicate view dimension problem.

I have a 2 terraces of 4 houses that can't fit on an A1 sheet. Originally my colleague drew it to fit on an A0 sheet but we've been told in no uncertain terms to split it into two A1's.

 

I have drawn a matchline at a sensible party wall line at roughly half way through each terrace then I have duplicated the views as dependent views and I have two neat drawings with tags with references to the other side of the split drawing.

 

All was well with me until I printed and checked the drawing. My overall building and panel dimensions are missing. They are there in the parent view and the text should be visible within the crop lines but they will not show. One panel dimension I can redraw as I can see the end of the wall within the crops but the overall building dims and the other panel dim won't redraw and I can't make them appear even if I turn off the crop annotation property box for the view. What am I missing?

Your overall dimensions will not show on a partial plan, nor should it. That's why there's "overall plans" and "partial plans". :)

 

As soon as the object being dimensioned is out of View the dimension will disappear with it since there is no object to dimension to in the View, so it because insignificant.
