Windows in Archicad 28 exterior 2D trim not displaying correctly on plan.

We have a project in Bimcloud. When placing in a window, the exterior trim dose not display correctly (see Screenshot). Even when offsetting it 3",  it stays in its current location, will not move. The 3D trim will move and display correctly, but the 2D exterior trim will mot move.  What is up with that?!

 

I have tried to replace the library, but still same issue. 

 

Because this project is in Bimcloud. we have this issue on Mac Intel & silicon version. 

 

This issue dose not appear in AC 27. 

 

Operating system used: Mac Intel-based 15.2

+1 for this.  Having the same trouble as I rework our favorites using the new universal library.

So, the 27 library object works as you want.

I am assuming in 28 you are now using the new Global Library objects?

If so, you may actually be using a different object to what you were using in 27.

The global objects have all been combined, but there are still extra language versions of object that you can load in addition to what is loaded by default.

 

But if you are still using the 27 library in 28, then they should be the same as before.

Versions 6.5 to 27

Lenovo Thinkpad - i7-1270P 2.20 GHz, 32GB RAM, Nvidia T550, Windows 11

Let me try and see what happens. But I believe the issue remains and is not resolved.  I should just load the window and door for the USA version and it work. it is not working correctly, at least for me.
