Duplicate “tolerance.gsm” library part in AC 28

David Collins — Fri, 06 Jun 2025 19:23:02 GMT

I’m migrating current 27 projects into ArchiCAD 28. The library manager is reporting two versions of “tolerance.gsm” although one of them is named “tolerance 27.gsm”
Both of these appear to be embedded in lcf files. Which one should I eliminate and how do I do it?

Thanks Laszlo for pointing me at this thread.

I have to say, I’m no fan of the Global library, for all the reasons mentioned there. I have many projects that have migrated through multiple ArchiCAD versions and will continue to do so going forward. I see trouble down the road if Graphisoft eliminates the migration libraries altogether.

As for the multiple copies of tolerance.gsm: Really, Graphisoft? That was too much bother to fix on your end?
