Ruler and Grid on Layout

Anonymous — Fri, 26 May 2023 00:29:59 GMT

Hi everyone,

I'm a new user of ArchiCAD, sorry. Don't know much yet.

I have a simple question to you guys, it is possible to make a layout (to posterior publish) that appear the RULER on it?

And the GRID display?

It is very important to my work that the documents created have a grid with the coordinates on it.

Thanks.

Sorry for my english.

The View\Grid Display and View \Ruler commands work in the Layout Book too.
However, you cannot print/plot the Grid.

The state of the Ruler toggle is a setting that is store in the Work Environment.
If you close ArchiCAD then restart it and you use the last Work Environment you used, the Ruler should stay displayed.
If you switch to another Work Environment in the Start ArchiCAD Dialog, the Ruler could get turned off.

If this is not how it works for you it could be a bug.
However, I tried it on AC15 just now and it works correctly for me.
