Hi,

 

Why is the m2 dimensions not showing up in the master layout book page? Also, is there any tutorials / help with layers and layout book for archicad 28 anywhere? 🙂

Cec, these M2 dimensions look like they are the square meter totals for fills.  Are the fill patterens layer turned on in your layer combination?

If they are turned on, then perhaps the "Show Area Text" toggle was unchecked on the all the fills.  Make sure that this is checked and then they should show up.
