I know how to do it from plan and elevations. There I just mark the objects I want as lines and ctrl+c and then ctrl + v on the worksheet, WORKS PERFECT! How do I do this from a 3d view?<BR /> <BR /> Thank you in advance..</T></DIV> Thu, 25 May 2023 22:04:08 GMT https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Documentation/Get-2d-drawing-worksheet-from-3d-view/m-p/271061#M42359 Anonymous 2023-05-25T22:04:08Z https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Documentation/Get-2d-drawing-worksheet-from-3d-view/m-p/271062#M42360 Brainmaniac:<BR /> <BR /> You can create a 3D Document by right-clicking in the 3D Window and selecting <FONT color="blue">New 3D Document from 3D...</FONT>, or use the flat <FONT color="blue">Marquee</FONT> to Copy and Paste from the 3D Window. The 1st creates a live connection to the model, the other just 2D elements.<BR /> <BR /> 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.<BR /> <BR /> David Thu, 23 Mar 2017 12:34:47 GMT https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Documentation/Get-2d-drawing-worksheet-from-3d-view/m-p/271062#M42360 David Maudlin 2017-03-23T12:34:47Z https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Documentation/Get-2d-drawing-worksheet-from-3d-view/m-p/271063#M42361 Thank you David! I followed your instructions and voilá: I Have an avatar! <IMG src="https://community.graphisoft.com/legacyfs/online/emojis/icon_smile.gif" style="display : inline;" /><BR /> <BR /> About my issue though. Thank you for your input. When I do the copy and paste that you proposed I just get and image (!) insrted.. no actuall lines ? What am I doing wrong?

In my 3d window settings I had the openGL instead of Vectorial engine. Once that was changed it worked. THank you for your help anyway.
