Great handle. It's like we made a movie about some bad Dutch weed that gave people weird Zombified behaviour [already almost true anyways]. "Night of the Amsterdamned."

1: Make sure that you do not have a Cutting Plane active that hides your model.

2: Try selecting everything in plan, then Zoom "Fit in Window".

3: Use the camera tool [toolbar - camera icon] to aim at your subject. Place a camera in the plan view.

No. I cry, because I reviewed the Archicad Help files and dang if'n it isn't difficult to find that out!

Here's the Standard Toolbox - the camera is at the bottom.

But maybe you don't have a camera in YOUR toolbox because it isn't set up.

And here's where you make sure that the camera is included with your toolbox
