Cursor in Layout Book

Anonymous — Thu, 25 May 2023 22:07:07 GMT

I am using Archicad 11 14 INT FULL - I have a project file where the layout book only has frozen - the project and views are all working normally, but in the layouts my cursor has frozen as an arrow with checkmark and my coordinates read 0. I can't select or manipulate anything - though I can use other shortcuts to select things globally. I assume I have reset something, but I've no idea what - any ideas?

Long shot, Verify that you have not turned the Grid Snap on. By default it uses a 4'x4' grid and anything within cannot be selected.

Another long shot from another direction :
Delete all your Layouts and Master Layouts (oen will remain of each), then create a new Master Layout, delete the one left from previous Master Layouts, then create a new Layout, and delete the one left from previous Layouts.
The idea is to delete all Layouts and Master Layouts that existed because they may be in some way connected with the problem. Only the newly created Layout and Master Layout remains.
By the way: is this file migrated from a previous version?

... try Gridsnap first though.

It's easy to hit S by mistake.
