Unable to select multiple holes of a slab in AC 18

Anonymous — Thu, 25 May 2023 15:39:37 GMT

Hi

Does anyone experience the same problem that I have? In all past versions of ArchiCAD I was able to select multiple holes of the same slab to move, mirror, drag a copy or delete them. But now in AC 18 (update 5100) I am able to select only one hole at the same time. This is really frustrating because it reduces my work productivity dramatically.

Thanks for reply. I didn't find a solution there though. I am still unable to Shift+Select holes

Ah, sorry. Misred your message.
Thought you couldn't select a hole in a slab.

Doesn't work for me either to select multiple holes in a slab.

I checked this in every version all the way back to AC15 and selection of multiple Slab Holes didn't work even then. You can select only one Slab Hole at a time. So I am not exactly sure this ever worked.

However, you can always draw a polygonal-shaped Marquee around the holes you wish to move and use the Stretch command on them to move them together in one step (just make sure you don't accidentally stretch other elements as well).
