I have created a personalized AC19 template. Based on my AC18 template, it uses a completely different layering system, pens, Quick options and other changes. Fine, I thought, and began to draw an existing floor plan, setting my renovation default to 'EXISTING". I could have done this in AC18 but since I've paid for the upgrade, I might as well use it. That was my first mistake - so far. Having finished the plan, added the existing roof, bath, WC and vanity basin, plus an existing site mesh, I started the demolition part. Turning off the "EXISTING PLAN' default, and clicking the DEMOLITION PLAN' I selected the toilet and bathroom fixtures to be demolished. <BR /> <BR /> My whole existing drawing disappeared.<BR /> <BR /> I returned to the 'EXISTING PLAN' setting but nothing re-emerged. I scrolled trough all of the demolition options and finally got my drawing back. In the 'SHOW ALL ELEMENTS' section. I checked the Renovation Filter options and could see no reason why my selection would have disappeared. Checked my layers and they seemed alright. I followed the same procedure as I'd done lots of times in AC18 but something is different. Remember that I also changed my layers in AC18. There must now be a link - somewhere - between layers, Quick Options and perhaps other things, that affects RENOVATIONS. Please advise.</T></DIV> Tue, 30 May 2023 10:26:00 GMT https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Documentation/AC19-Renovation/m-p/231609#M34880 KeesW 2023-05-30T10:26:00Z https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Documentation/AC19-Renovation/m-p/231610#M34881 Have you checked the filter setting have existing set to "Show"?<BR /><IMG src="https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/18392i0F34F133DAB56C4B/image-size/large?v=v2&amp;px=999" border="0" alt="capture.jpg" title="capture.jpg" /> Fri, 06 Nov 2015 11:26:04 GMT https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Documentation/AC19-Renovation/m-p/231610#M34881 DGSketcher 2015-11-06T11:26:04Z https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Documentation/AC19-Renovation/m-p/231611#M34882 Yes, it is set to show.
