"View Settings" shortcut?

NateLumen
Enthusiast

I have a number of views whose MVO settings have gone "Missing" (although they still exist). I know this has been a longstanding issue since at least Archicad 25. But now I am tasked with going through each view and relinking the MVO settings, but I can't seem to find a command to open "View Settings" in the list of possible shortcut commands (in Work Environment > Keyboard Shortcuts). If there were I would give it a shortcut to be able to quickly go through an open each views settings. Does this exist?

So you end-up with a situation like this

 For me this is a bug Graphisoft should address.

However, as a work around, If your views are from a clone folder, change the MVO setting of the clone to another one then return to the right one, all views in it will be amended.

If views doesn't belong to a clone, you can list them with a view index list with the MVO as a criteria,

 then change the MVO to a different one then again to the right one, for each listed view in the same way as for the clone.

Thank you so much for trying to help me out, but yes, this is something GS needs to fix urgently.

Also your workaround does not really work, because it will list both correctly set views as well as wrong ones.

And in the schedule I can't see where its missing or not. I can only go through all my views one by one 😖

It can help when you find a view with MVO missing as you can then find and correct all the views set with that MVO.

And if you list MVO settings for placed drawings with the Drawings manager ?

Does it show here drawings with missing MVO ?

If yes you can see witch MVO are considered as missing and use my previous work around to correct them.

See my response above: I, too, thought that would work but the drawing manager does not show missing MVOs either (at least not those "fake" missing ones).
