Hello guys, my archicad 27 interface have some problems. There should have some checkbox , but now they are gone. And the minimize buttons are gone too. I reinstalled the 27, it does not work. Archicad 26 is fine.

Can someone help me out?

The first thing to do in such cases is always to update to the latest graphics drivers, or if you are on the latest one, try to install an earlier one to see if that solves it. After installation, restart Windows and Archicad to make sure changes take effect.

Thank you for your reply Laszlo, I have install the latest drivers and 5003update.

And I found two interesting things.

1. I uninstalled the goodies plugin, reinstalled it. It works. except the up right corner 3 icons 😞

2. But, when I set the the Hi DPI zoom to "enhance" as pic below. the checkbox disappear again. But my original question is not caused by this Hi DPI settings.

What happens if you set the Scaling to 100%? Does the issue resolve then?

Sorry I fogot upload the image. It is not the scale of the screen. It's the properties of the programe.

Screen scale will not affect this checkbox issue. but will affect the display of the "quicke option bar".

When there is a gdl obj is open and edit. 200% screen scale , the "quicke option bar" is gone. 175% screen scale , the "quicke option bar" is back.

When there is no gdl obj is open, the "quicke option bar" is alway there.

I would still try 100% scaling.

Archicad does not seem to like anything other than 100%.

Yes I like 100% too. But my 13' laptop is small and it's 3K screen. 100% make me almost can't see any word in the UI 😞

But does 100% fix the problem?

If it does then maybe change the resolution of your screen.

1920 x 1080 maybe, but I am not sure with a 13" screen.

That is very small for Archicad.

Changing the screen resolution will affect all of your programs though.

No. THe problem is not related to screen scale.

You say you are on a laptop.

Does it only have a built in video card or does it also have a separate video card.

Archicad likes (needs?) to use a separate card.

If you do have a separate card, you can tell Archicad to run on that card.

SYSTEM > Display > Graphics settings.

Add the Archicad program and tell it to run on high performance so it uses the separate card.
