Placing Object with desired Hotspot

Anonymous

At last, I can put my object on the floorplan and I can change some attribute of it

http://archicad-talk.graphisoft.com/viewtopic.php?p=182285#1

My object have many hotspot but now I can use only default hotspot to place it.

Are there any way the place object using another HOTSPOT. So I can rotate it correctly. And easy.

Thank you

I know this is not what you're discussing, but is there some "developer" code that makes an object NOT respond to the hotspot that is EYEDROPPERED?

For example, I have an object in plan... I used to be able to EYEDROPPER the CENTER HOTSPOT and all subsequent placement would place by the center... This does not seem to happen anymore..

This has been reported - and I was about to report it again, as it has been a few years and still not fixed. Cannot remember if this "broke" in 12 or 13. But, it prevents using visual favorites properly, such as with the Detailer palettes.

But, yeah, wrong forum: this is a Working in ArchiCAD issue.

Cheers,

I upload this source code to you

To help me find the problem.

It's place object with the same location.

But I don't want it
