Problem with Goodies Add-on in AC26 INT

BIM Architects — Wed, 15 Nov 2023 09:15:52 GMT

Hi there

I have installed Goodies_Suite-26-INT-3000-1.0, but accessories and other goodies are not displayed in menubar the "Design/Design Extras" !!!

However, in installed folder in Program Files I have Accessories Library 26 (please have a look screenshot)

Than I have installed Updates for Archicad 4019 but its doesn't help.

I have loaded Accessories Library 26 (please have a look screenshot)

Has anyone had such a problem?

What should I do?

Best Regads

This is a known issue. I’ll see if I can find the article. Run the latest update installer for Archicad 26 and it should correct it or manually add the menu items through the work environment.

the other thing you can do is manually add it in the menus via work environment.

@ryejuan @Lee Hankins Thank you, but how can I add it manually if I have nothing to add?

You need to the command you want then you can search it and place to the menus. Image below for your reference.

OK, so I should enter the text.

Thanks
I'm just wondering how long has this issue been happening (from which version) ?

I installed Goodies for AC 24 without any problems.

There's some issue on Graphisoft side if am not mistaken.

You will need to look at "All commands in alphabetical order' as the menus don't exist.

To add the commands yourself you will need to create the folders yourself and find all of the commands.

It really is just easier to re-install 26 (with repair option) but don't start Archicad, then load the goodies, then update to build 4014 and now start Archicad.

Yes, I am also thinking about it, because I will probably have to add all the goodies manually and I do not remember where they are should located.

For now, I have added the essentials for me at the moment.

Yes, this works as long as you have the hotfix 4019 and follow the procedure that @Barry Kelly stated. 😎

last time they didn't have the hotfix update now they got it already so you can do this method. 😎

So as I understand this problem appeared in the AC26 version, right?

Correct.

And supposedly it will be fixed in the future.

After few hours of frustration. I simply just go to Options>Add-On Manager,

then deselect all add-ons and press Ok > Save Changer and Reload Project.

When program restart,

Select all add-ons and press Ok > Save Changer and Reload Project.

Program will restart again and your goodies will be uploaded.
