Hello,

Does anybody know how to select Labels of Column, Door / Window independently in AC 17 ? ( except Find & Select option )

It is very easy to select the same in previous versions of Archicad using Quick Selection tool.

Regards,

Why can't you select them the way you did in previous versions?

Thanks for responding this..

Basically when I move my cursor over any Label, it does not highlights as it happens in previous versions.

Instead of highlighting Label, a tiny blue dot is visible after too much zooming and then I can pick it, but it is not possible for every label to do faster work.

AC17 Quick Selection works here as in previous versions. Are you sure it is turned on (Arrow Tool > Info Box > magnet is depressed) or in the Help files Interaction > Selection > Selecting Elements > Quick Selection of Surface Areas.

Hello,

I just came to know that if Col / Beam/ Door / Win Label has any Marker head selected in it's Label settings , then AC shows Quick selection icon & if it is set to none then it does not show any selection Marker.

Is Quick selection icon does not appear for No Marker Head ?
