How to Remove Object in Library Loading Report

Brad Elliott — Wed, 24 May 2023 10:00:26 GMT

Hello,
I am trying to create a new clean working Template for ArchiCAD 12. I started with a new & reset file and brought my previous template information over. I then started getting this error. Since this is an AC 12 Library part and it works fine how can I find what is generating this error so I can remove it. I like my template files to load cleanly so that it is obvious when something goes wrong. Otherwise it is too easy to just close the window.

Did you try File->Libraries and objects->Library manager to find this thing and remove it from the list of current loaded libraries?

Yes I have but it doesn't show up in the Library Manager. There is nothing in the Libraries/Objects not found folder. I can't figure out where to locate it.

It wouldn't be if it's been removed.

This looks like an old MSA detailer part. It probably resides on a detail or a worksheet. In any case, turn on all your layers and with the Object tool active, go to each and every window and hit ctrl/cmd+A and watch your Info Box for results.

I must add, that this does not look like a good start for a clean template.

Cheers,
Link.

Exactly. That library part was discontinued in AC 9, and was replaced by DET_Wood (if I remember the right name). It is probably in an unlinked section or detail window containing the old MSA 'palettes', or perhaps as a Favorite. (Since 9, all of previously MSA-prefixed parts have been prefixed with DET.)

This is something unique to the US library, for anyone outside the US reading...

Cheers,
Karl

I WISH there were a better way.

Hello,

Having an object, door, window, zone or linked property as default on tools also reports if missing from loaded libraries.

Thanks all, I found it. It was in an unlinked orphaned detail. Part of why it's good to review the templates.

Now all I need is a new project
