Morph training

KeesW — Wed, 24 May 2023 17:24:51 GMT

I am following the instructions in Archicad Training Series volume 2 Conceptual Design and am stuck on the page 9 - only the second page of the tutorial! After creating the 40000x28000x1000 morph base, I am supposed to draw a snap guide from the bottom left corner on top of this first box. When I do this I am drawing another morph box, and not a blue dotted line as per the tutorial. What am I doing wrong? Is there a step missing in the tutorial?

Make sure you hover over the corner & allow the blue circle to finish before you type in the value.

It's also worth noting that you can speed up the appearance of the circle by typing "Q".

I have tried hovering and using 'Q' but still aren't getting the blue circle and line. Is there a setting I need to switch on to make this happen?

Kees:

A few things to check:
Are Snap Guides and Snap Guides and Points turned on (these are On Screen Display Options)?
In Work Environment > User Preference Schemes > Input Constraints and Guides > Highlight as snap reference after: is this set to a high number of seconds?
