Changing story of layout

Anonymous — Thu, 25 May 2023 22:04:38 GMT

Hi all

I am doing options in Archicad 19 for floor plans on multiple levels. I've created a series of 5 versions of the ground floor plan and they are set up as 5 layouts.

Now i've done the same on the first floor plan and i want to quickly create layouts for this level.

So i duplicated the 5 ground floor layouts and now i just want to change the level/story that it is displaying without moving the position.

Is there an easy way of doing it without having to set up views and try to match it manually?

Many thanks!

M.

Open the Drawing Manager Palette.
Select the Drawings you wish to relink (you can identify them by checking which Layout they are placed on) and click the "Link Drawing to" button in the upper left corner of the Drawing Manager.
Select the new source View for the Drawings.

Another way:
1. Select the Drawing on the Layout
2. Right-click and select Link Drawing to...
3. In the Link to dialog box, select the View for the new floor plan
4. The Floor Plan will be placed at the same location on the Layout

You should add a Signature to your Profile (click the Profile button near the top of this page) with your ArchiCAD version and operating system (see mine for an example) for more accurate help in this forum.
