I can't get the new mep feature in Archicad 24 as the manual written.

Hello guys, I can't get the new mep feature in Archicad 24 as the manual written.
As the pics below, It said Predifinded sizes can define a default bend radius for each size. But my 24 is not like that. Second, It said Connections between ducts/pipes/cable carriers now can be created easily by moving one duct into another. I didn't make it.
Are you guys same with me or how to do that connection.
THank!

I think MEP is under review just now and you may be seeing clues on what will be in the next MEP update. Hopefully we aren't waiting to AC25 for the update.

Dear Balint, The first update of AC24 3022, didn't include this feature. Sad.

Just my opinion, but I think the first "real" AC24 Update will be build 4000 or later (based on previous versions), so it will start with the number 4.
This update contained only 5 fixes, so I suppose it was just a quick hotfix.

Hopefully, yes!
But still a sad definition of "qiuck" then.
Graphisoft really needs to work on their communication. Users don't want to speculate.

Willam Yan, runxel,

I got some info from GS HQ. AC24 build 3022 was a Hotfix, but the next Update for Archicad 24 is coming soon, we will keep you posted about it.

I haven't seen an official announcement, but build 4007 is available now - at least for some languages.
Check for updates in the HELP menu to see if it is available for you.

Barry.
