Mooving hotspots in Curtain wall Frame

david_lozej — Wed, 03 Jun 2026 12:20:55 GMT

I made a lot of custom Frames with mooving hotspots in AC versions before AC 27. In the versions before AC 27 hotspots works OK. Now in AC 27 and later in the PET palette doesn't appear the "Editing" option any more.

Operating system used: Mac Apple Silicon

Can you show a screenshot of the issue?

So, is this a Curtain Wall placed with the Object tool? Not a Curtain Wall element?

Hi Laszlo,

This is Curtain Wall element (Frame). It contain few mooving hotspots.

I made two screenshots:

-first is made in AC26

-second is made in AC27 where it is not possible to use (in the PET palette) mooving options.

Hi Laszlo,

This are Curtain Wall elements (Frames and Panels). I made this for Trimo (slovenian manufacturer for facade panels. This ware one of the first system made by GDL for Curtain Wall tool (in AC16). I can support you with the whole library. The manufacturer note me for this problem and it look like the bug. It look like that Graphisoft cancel the Editing hotspots in Frame elements after AC27. I know that it is rare to have Editing hotspots in the Frame element of the Curtain Wall tool, but my library relay on this options.

OK, so, if I understand correctly, these are editing hotspots for the individual Frames? So, you can modify the geometry of the Frame graphically or move it from its default position?

I think if it does not work in Ac27, there is nothing much I can say beside recommending that you report this as a bug to your local reseller.
