Section markers in different sizes stories

Anonymous — Tue, 30 May 2023 10:26:03 GMT

Hello,

That´s my first post but i´m a lurker from a long time.

I´ve made some research before posting this and i didn´t found any answers.

I have a two-story house and the second story plan is much smaller then the first one. This causes a "problem": my secton markers are far away from the contours of my second floor plan. And if i try to move the markers just on the second story plan, it also moves on the first story plan.

So, my question is, can i move my section markers closer to the floor contours just in the second story plan?

Thank you very much!

Place your makers on the ground floor and set them to show only on the ground floor.
Now on the upper floor you will place new markers that will only show on the upper floor but you will also change the marker properties to become "Place Linked Marker".
You will then be asked to choose the view that you want to link to - which will be the section on the ground floor.

The upper floor markers can be placed where ever you want now but will always link to the ground floor marker and show what ever the ground floor marker shows.

Make sure the vertical range of your ground floor marker is not limited or at least shows the height for the storeys that you want to show.

Barry.

Welcome to the Forum,

I am hearing that many architectural firms in Brazil are starting to discover ARCHICAD just like you do.

Thank you for your welcome message.

I don´t have this information but i believe it can be true.
I´m testing it in a small project (as i said) and i´m very satisfied with it until now!
