Archicad 27 : Pick up parameters freezes and/or has lag

AlexV — Wed, 03 Jul 2024 08:33:38 GMT

I've been experiencing a really annoying bug in AC27: frequently when picking up parameters it will notice a lag, and even freeze for seconds as shown in the video. The model I'm showing is a pln modeled from scratch in 27, cleaned of attributes, classifications, properties or any unnecessary additional metadata. Tried different element transfer settings but to no result.

One thing I noticed in 2d is that if I use a dedicated shortcut instead of ALT+ mouseclick it doesn't happen, but on 3D window it doesn't work.

I upgraded from AC25 and the difference is noticeable, I don't think I've seen this happening at all before. I'm running a Xeon W-2245, 64Gb RAM, RTX A4000.

Anyone knowing what this can be related to?

Operating system used: Windows 10

I have the same issue. As Alex notes, the keyboard shortcut works better (even in 3D for me), but not being able to alt+mouse click is really annoying, especially since it's engrained into my work hands and I keep doing it without thinking. Right now the model freezes and blinks for about 5-10 seconds before eventually picking up the parameters.

Any solution to his?

I didn't found any other workaround. But one other thing I noticed is that the freezing issues are more noticeable for pick up parameters rather than inject. Also walls tend to be more "troublesome" then any other building element.

Apart from that it's the same in our office - people are really upset bc of the same reason as you. This single issue comes up every time we talk about improvments in the office standard.

Tried it in AC28- freezing it's still there for alt + mouse click, maybe not as bad though.

Chip us in on this. Extremely annoying to the extent that some user revert to 25.

And AC 28 did not fix this issue either...

So much fun to spend 50% of your working hours watching a flashing pipette.
