bummer.


iv set the Intersection Priority Number to zero like you mentioned.. but it seems that as i work and come back to the floor framing layer that some of the beams are ending up intersecting and some are staying un intersected. even though they were all un intersected in the beginning.

i pull them apart again and over time they end up back being intersected after being untouched

Interesting.
It seems a beam will always grow so that the reference lines touch if you draw one beam just touching the side of the other.
Even if you have the layer intersection priority number set to 0 and the "Clean wall and beam intersections" turned off.

But if you force the beam to stop at the side of the other beam then it shouls stay there regardless of what you do.

ill see how i go with a little more fine tuning.. thanks again for you help.

the more I try to "use" archicad the more disappointed im getting with it.. seems to have all these great inclusions, all of which come to a screaming halt with their limitations. making them to basic to be usfull.

I have tried similarly to do what you are trying to do - If you find an answer, please post it.

I did find this however -

And probably more - however associated, but not specifically an answer.
But helpful I found.

Locally - my support - have no answers either .(Well for me it seems.)
Hang in there. ( I was told )

A bit knowledge in GDL and calculating script, then you could get amazing result from ArchiCad, schedules are too basic but you get data very quickly that way from your model.
