Hi Chris,

instead of
  QgsMapLayerRegistry().instance().addMapLayer(vl, True)
do
  QgsMapLayerRegistry.instance().addMapLayer(vl, True)
(removing the '()')

and it should work. This line should be on
"C:/Users/cw/.qgis2/python/plugins\dimensioning\tools\utils.py" line 35

But even better, contact the plugin author or create an issue, see

http://plugins.qgis.org/plugins/dimensioning/

Regards,

Richard
