Need help identifing missing library part

Stress Co_ — Mon, 03 Apr 2006 22:00:32 GMT

I'm trying to lose the attached error message. Can anyone shed some light? It looks like it's there.

thanks,
Marc

It looks like one of your Zone Categories is looking for the missing object (Options > Attribute Settings > Zone Categories)

Thanks Tom.

I got rid of the message by re-selecting a different stamp for each zone. (This began after updating the SE Library).

Is there a way to remove the "missing" zone stamp from the zone stamp list? I mean... why is it in the list, if it's missing

It just means that Archicad cannot find the object that it was looking for. The onyl way to get rid of it is to assign some object to that Zone Category.

Hey Marc

It is probably set up as the default for your zone categories in your template. Go to Options>Zone Categories... and switch out all the Zone Categories from the pop-up menu at the top of the dialog and change the active Zone Stamp for each one as you go.

Once you OK that, reload your libraries and you shouldn't get a report appearing.

Watch the snow on those bunny slopes mate - that stuff can be dangerous!

Marc:

You should also check the parameters of the Zone Stamp. I have had this same library report when one of the zone fills was showing up as "missing" in the parameters list (probably because I had deleted a default ArchiCAD fill when setting up my template file). Setting the "missing" fill to an available fill took care of the library report.

I reopened my template to see what was missing and it was the Font. Kinda weird... I changed the font ...no message.... but then it came back.

Like Tom and Link sugessted... I 've changed the stamp for each zone. No message.

Ahh, don't rub it in Mate. It snowed 7" in the last 24hrs.

That's a shame, this works for me, did you change the font for all the Zone Categories? And save the file after making the changes? Anywho, it looks like you found a solution.
