Custom Door Leaf in Library Manager showing 0 used elements

I'am using Custom Door Leaf *.gsm object in my projects, but in Library Manager it's showing that 0 elements are used in project. It should be like that or its another bug ?

I don't know for sure, but maybe it is because it is not an object used directly.

It is called from the door frame object.

So the door frame would count as a placed object, but maybe not the called door leaf.

It is not even directly called... If you place a door and look through the macros, you will see that none of them are listed as "placed". Only the root object.

You can probably schedule the object parameter if you are wanting a count.

Yes I can schedule that, but logic in using *.gsm objects is not clear for me in Library Manager. I think it should be counted in Library Manager.

I guess it would be nice to see that it has been used, so we can then decide if it is safe to delete or not.

But you can always save to and external folder first, then delete and see if anything is missing.

If it is you can bring it back or add it to a linked library.

If you do just delete it and then find it is missing - it is too late (unless you don't save the main file).

Looks like it cannot be scheduled out because for all doors it showing "Custom Door Leaf" name, not considering that some of doors have not custom but predefined Door Leaf types from Archicad database.

Archicad is becoming too complex, too many bugs.

Door i selected have default door type but in panel name it still writes some custom door panel name 😞
