There is no automated way to do what you want. I’ve been a ConDoc user sense v3.0, 5+ years, with over 30 years experience in the residential design industry. Was using ACAD sense the DOS days if the early 90’s. Always draw stud thickness. Always dimension stud faces or center lines in plan. This is an architectural standard. Modeling wall finishes is a PITA at best. I’ve done it and it definitely slows things down when walls change. Put them on the Element_Trim tag if you must model them I can say from experience that adding 1″ for interior dims in your head for overall clear dims is what you had to do before Revit and AutoCad Architecture created wall styles with display settings. If you’re concerned with exterior dimension for setbacks and such those are set at the foundation. In my 35+ years I’ve never dimensioned to a finished full width studs as a standard
