solid element operator

Anonymous — Tue, 23 May 2023 14:56:58 GMT

Simple question - created a wall, cut the wall with a solid object to create an opening - I do not understand why the wall does not read in plan (to show the opening).....I've set the wall to "cut only" and checked my floor plan cut plane...but still not luck. What am I doing wrong?

You should do a search before you ask. This was answered yesterday, and many days before. SEOs will not show in 2D plan view. We hope for next version.

But creating openings in walls is the simplest issue. It has worked in all 20 years of Archicad, AFAIK. Place any door or window. Click the small rectangle in the settings box to delete the D/W but keep the opening. Resize at will. And get some basic training! Start with the tutorials at GS web site.

Yes. But Grass's response to getting help probably won't enourage those people...
