COPY / PASTE OBJECT IN THE SAME PLACE

Anonymous
Not applicable
Hi everyone,

As a Revit user I’m trying to see if there are some commands that could be similar.

In Revit I could copy and then paste and object in the same place but on a different story. This was very useful with slabs, stairs and also furniture in buildings with a lot a floors. I was wondering if there was something similar in ArchiCAD

Thanks a lot, you’re all helping me very much, I’m really very grateful

Use the "Go Up (Down) a Story" keyboard shortcut to quickly change stories.

My mac is set to Command-Arrow key Up and Command-Arrow key down.

Default settings maybe different:

or - you could view the protion of of the tower/model where you want to place the objects using the marquee tool. That way you can copy and paste the objects relative to some convinient, visible, and common place of reverence. Like the same corner of a room on each floor, or exaclty virtical from the top of one for to the next, that sort of thing.
