importing wall composites from ac11 to ac15

Anonymous — Wed, 24 May 2023 10:59:44 GMT

is it possible, or practical to import wall composites from version 11 to 15?

thanks.

i guess i could make a new file in 11 with all of the wall types, then import it into 15.

i am sure there is a better way.

Sure, just use Attribute Manager in the new file. Options > Element Attributes > Attribute Manager (or something close to that)

On the right side near the bottom you'll see an Open button. Open the old file. Select any or all of the old composites listed on the right (after selecting the Composites tab), and Overwrite or Append them into the current file. Use Overwrite if it is essential that the composites appear at the same index number as in the old file. Use Append otherwise.

Cheers,
Karl
