Search this Forum for Dimensions. A feature that would enable these details to be inserted, in 2D and 3D output, as required would be most welcome.
There is no way to achieve your objective without a fair amount of selecting. I sympathise with the task you face, and for thast reason have not attempted to create a Building Cross Section.
