I upgraded to Archicad 27 from 23. I placed a door on my drawing; now when I go to the library to select a door the on placed on the plans is the only one visible. I cannot select a different door. I am trying to add a garage door.

Hi @martica,

You can try to reload your 27 library objects, see this link:

Do you have the 27 library loaded?

If you file originates from 23, then you may also need to load the migration libraries.

If that does not help, can you post a screen shot of the door settings dialogue so we can see what you can see.

Barry.

Thank you for your response. Enclosed is the screen shot. Typically when I go to the door tool there are a variety of doors to choose from. In this case only one. The one I used last. I wonder if I did something with the "create container", which I know nothing about.

Hi Mahmoud Qenawi,

I reloaded the libraries, and still can only access one door. To help explain please refer to the screen shot.

Click on the thin grey bar on the left side of the window? Your UI is collapsed by default in A27?

It's great you could solve your case, thanks to @Lingwisyer.
