How do I exclude elements in an intersection dimension?

An intersection dimension is a measurement of all Structural, Reinforcement and AutoCAD® members it comes across.

There are two methods that can be used for excluding certain elements from an intersection dimension:

2. By excluding elements in the dimension line definition.
