Archicad 14 layers bug

Anonymous — Wed, 24 May 2023 10:51:29 GMT

I have just found a bug in my Archicad 14, which drives me crazy.
As the video posted below shows, hiding particular layer in Archicad should logically hide the objects that belong to that layer. And this is what happens.
But it seems these objects are only hidden visually, but functionally are not.
By "functionally" I mean: they still affect objects that are not hidden.
This is related to the walls - non-hidden ones are still acting like there are hidden ones present.

Take a look:

I know version 14 is way old, but still I want to know if this issue is present in the newer versions too?

It´s not a bug. You have to change the Layer intersection number of that hidden walls to a different number that the walls on visible Layers have.

Thank you Andro,

That solved my problem.

But from the users point of view - this is a bug. Hiding a particular layer means temporarily removing it from the working space - both visually and functionally.
You can not expect that the layer is hidden only visually, but still remains present functionally.
That is absurd.

Again, thanks.
