problem with detail bugs - ArchiCAD 17

[maxjerz]

I'm having an issue with one particular file. Whenever I open the file by double-clicking from Windows explorer or by opening through the dialog box that comes up when first opening ArchiCAD, all the detail bugs lose their reference information. They show as #DrgID/#LayID, but when I select them, they do have the reference information show up in the Info Box. See the screenshot.

However, if I open the file by going through File > Open, the detail bugs show up correctly with their reference information.

I'm running ArchiCAD 17 with the latest hotfix on Windows 7 Professional. This problem is not limited to my computer (tried it on other computers in the office with the same result).

ETA: I have the same problem with the .bpn for this file.

Anyone else run into this problem?

Yes. I've run into this and have no solution other than to reopen the file. Incredibly annoying.... Maybe it has to do with a project that was started in an earlier version? Don't know; just speculating.

Maxjerz,

What I am seeing on your screenshot is that the Info Box says that this is a Linked Marker, it is set to reference the selected drawing, but No Drawing has been placed yet. Try to place a Drawing on a Layout and then see if this Drawing Marker displays the correct info.

Laszlo,
The program sometimes doesn't "see" the already placed (linked) drawing and gives that error message. That IS the bug. It takes reloading the program to get the drawings to be recognized again.

Yes, what Richard describes is the same problem I'm having.

[Laszlo Nagy]

OK, in that case I will report this as a bug to Graphisoft.
