When I grab the hotspot to stretch one of the beams facing N/S, it doesn't stretch, in fact none of them facing a particular direction will stretch. However, all of them facing in the perpendicular E/W direction will stretch normally. The direction is arbitrary as far as I can tell. Sometimes the E/W editing doesn't work while the N/S editing does.<BR /> <BR /> This happens with doors/windows also - I can drag them along a wall normally, but sometimes if I try dragging in a wall perpendicular to that wall, it won't move. The problem seems to go away if I switch out of the 3D window, back to 2D and then back to 3D a few times. <BR /> <BR /> I've been dealing with this for quite some time, but would like to find a better workaround or a fix so I can speed my modeling time back up to normal.<BR /> <BR /> Anyone else experience this or have a method for a quick fix when it happens?</T></DIV> Tue, 23 May 2023 14:37:19 GMT MMontgomery 2023-05-23T14:37:19Z https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Modeling/Stretching-Beam-Object-and-moving-Door-Window-Issues/m-p/128678#M68304 <DIV class="actalk-migrated-content"><T>This has been an issue since the 3D editing plane was introduced. <BR /> <BR /> I think I've only experienced this with library parts and doors/windows.<BR /> <BR /> The issue: When editing in the 3D window, I'll have beams placed facing N/S and Beams placed facing E/W.
