Anyone running into this issue? Anytime when I'm in the Site and Project info layout and trying to adjust the layout to fit, it just freezes after I click on it, can't right click or do anything. It's like layout is trying to refresh cause you can see in the Info box (layer, border line, size etc) is glitching.
I never had this problem before, and noticed when was trying to adjust the layout in my design. I've restarted many times, hard shut down on archicad etc. Tried in a blank template file and same issue was happening...
Seems maybe the latest update caused this issue?

If it is just that layout page and not others, then I would still still suspect something in that layout.
You mention schedules - it could be one of those.
Try deleting one placed drawing at a time to see if it starts responding better.
Maybe even delete that entire layout and try re-creating it.
Don't save the file, or open a copy of the file so it doesn't matter if you destroy it.

I'm going to roll back my update(s) and see if that solved the problem.

When you select that drawing, is the source "Internal"?
It is too small for me to see in your video
As the other layout is working fine, I would say it is something wrong with that particular drawing.
Is it OK if you 'open source view'?

I doubt it is software related if other layouts are OK.

It does say internal. It's not just that drawing, but any other drawing / schedule in that layout just freezes the program.
If I right click first, I'm able to get to 'open source view', but once I go back to the layout then everything freezes again.

As a test, what happens if you set the View to Manual Update?

Thanks for working with me on this Barry.
Deleting one by one didn't quite work, but deleting the entire layout and recreating seems to work for whatever reason.

Hi Beta Testers,
I also had this issue with AC28 and lost almost 3 days of work trying to fix it (had no idea what caused it), because Archicad becomes unresponsive and You need to END TASK Archicad.exe program and start again - CPU just keeps on spinning endlessly. None of AC28 updates or reinstalling AC helped, this happened on all other computers with specific layouts.
