Auto Labels selection V17

Kristian Bursell — Thu, 31 Oct 2013 20:03:15 GMT

I have notice when trying to select my (cadswift) Auto Labels in v17 I have to hover over them for a few seconds before I can actually select them.
This is not an issue with the ArchiCAD Auto Labels and I have tried recreating my labels in v17 but the result is the same.
I have also searched the code for the ArchiCAD labels but can't find anything pertaining to this issue, though i may simply have missed it.
Any ideas?

Hey mate

What have you got going on in your master script?
I had one that was hanging a little, that was calling wall heights and then doing a little math, then pushing to the 2D script.
Is your label attached to anything linked to story heights?

Kristian (my brother from another mother),

Good to hear from you.
I think you may have touch on the issue; its an opening label that reads the story, ID, opening size, and relational zone data from the window/door. I just tested my wall label and it can be selected immediately though it also reads a variety of data. I might try stripping out the possible data from the opening label and see if that indicates what causes the issue.

Cheers mate,

Yeah mate the openings could be a few layers too.
If the window is linked to head height and the wall is linked to storey!
If it still plays up maybe try isolate it with a one run loop.
Or kick it off with a GLOB_MODPAR perhaps.
