Honestly, I almost botched a drawing with wrong dimensions, but fixing it fast kept the job on track.

Run the measure tool every time you fix a number, it's a basic check that catches scale issues fast.

You typed 12 feet for a wall you drew at 10... that's a whole different room.

Oh man, catching wrong numbers is just the first step! I've seen folks fix the dimension text but forget the scale is still totally off. Like if you drew a wall at 10 feet but typed 12, correcting the text doesn't shrink the wall. You gotta zoom out and see if the whole thing looks right. Always check the actual drawing, not just the typed numbers. A quick measure tool run can save you from a bigger problem later.
