Hi All,
I'm having issue with extending gridlines - from what I can see online people have two pink dots for controlling staggering, and extension of gridline head e.g. image below:
However the one I'm using at work has only one of it:
Is it to do with some settings? I'm so confused as I can't just extend gridlines by dragging it - it just staggers instead.
Thanks in advance!

Probably, the Extension and Stagger hotspots are on top of each other. Select the Grid Line, open its settings, then go to Floor Plan > Staggering and change its value. This should reset the hotspot locations.
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.
