Hi, 

 

Is there an option ( or a workaround) to get a multi column-text ) ?

No option that I know of and the only work around I can think of is to use 3 separate text blocks - but of course they won't flow from one to the other.

Or maybe one long narrow text block that you can place multiple views of and crop on a layout - then the text may flow properly as you edit it.

As Barry suggested one long text box placed on sheet multiple times, I have used this approach successfully to deliver reports directly from Archicad without needing to use a page layout application

Thank you ! The view is a nice workaround.

I wish , though, that Graphisoft may have a look to that as " nice addition" to an already powerful layout tool
