Trace reference

Hello,

The viewport in the layout is not showing trace reference even though that trace reference shows fine when you open it from the view map. This is a DWG reference. Does anyone know how to help with this please?

The 'viewport' on the layout (it is actually called a 'Drawing' in Archicad), does not have it's own trace reference.

The layout page can have a trace reference and you set it just the same as you do for any Views in the View map or View Points in the Project Map.

i.e. with the layout page open, browse the Navigator (Project Map or View Map), right click on the desired View Point or View, and choose 'Show as Trace Reference'.
