Why can I not add objects to my library?

Anonymous — Tue, 16 Dec 2008 08:39:11 GMT

Hi!
I´ve problems when I try to add a downloaded object to my library. A message appears: Can´t find Macro: GRAFIOvakiot, called at line 7 in the Master script of file Grafio_593PRBJM.gsm. It says that it is an invalid 2D symbol. This file was downloaded from the archicad depository.

Similar problem occurs with other files I´m trying to add to the library. For instance files from archibase.net.

I have the Education version.

PLZ, someone help me 😃

You can't add files to the main AC library unless you open the container file, which you probably don't want to do.

Instead make a folder for all your downloaded parts and load them into your project witht the library manager.

Yes, as Wraithchild says, make sure you put all associated files you downloaded into a loaded folder. If you have ArchiCAD open already, you will need to reload the libraries again so AC can see the new objects. This should solve the missing macros problem.
