Pasted text changes size

Hi all,

I've noticed an issue that is starting to bother me and wondering if anyone else have a similar experience or perhaps a solution.

Everytime I copy text from one label (typical annotation with arrow for detail) the text never seem to come through at the same font size..... It seems to be dependent on the level zoom of the window I'm in, the more I'm zoomed in the smaller the font and vice versa.

I end up having to correct the font size between each paste, slowing me down.

Anyone with similar problem / or solution...???

It is a known bug that does not seem to have been fixed yet.

Basically don't zoom between copy & paste.

bump.

 

Three+ years later, same problem persists.

 

Come on, Graphisoft.

Are you using AC26? Windows or iOS?

I just tried earlier with Archicad 25 build 6000 and had no problem zooming between copy & paste.

Apply the update and try again.

Bug also happens constantly when i'm not docked:

Integrated Intel Iris graphics on integrated 1920 x 1200 display.

 

Just tested again, as now i'm not sure i'm actually experiencing the same bug. Zoom/pan isn't necessary to cause it on my end. I pasted text in the same text box, after hitting enter, and it's 0.19 Pt larger. After pasting, i hit enter and continued to type: new text is also 0.19 Pt larger. That text, copy/pasted, (line 5) remained at 6.19 Pt.

 

(Could be related to leading / line spacing? Not for me to figure out until Graphisoft starts paying me~)

Tried again; this time at a different original size. (7.00 Pt) This time the text was pasted 0.08 Pt smaller. After hitting enter, new text on the next line was back to 7.00 Pt. The fourth line of text copy / pasted (line 5) was 0.08 Pt smaller again.
