hello,

I am a newbie on using Archicad 25, I currently made a building structure. after I made the first two stories I change the elevation and height to the next floor, then i want to add beam on the third story and suddenly there's a bubble that said as a result of the last operation, elements have been created and/or have changed their position on currently unseen stories. how can I solve this? please help

In the Beam Settings > Beam > Positioning, ensure that the Home Story is set to your current story.

 

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.

If you had continued from that message, you will have placed a beam on one of your other stories. Or above your FPCP if the beam was set to Projected only.
