I have a project in AC24, where I have a problem with my Door Markers that do not show correct values for Element IDs.
I have changed my IDs in a door schedule and I thought everything was OK, but then I've noticed that all my doors still show the old, unchanged ID.
Has anyone else come across something similar? The Marker I'm using is a standard marker from our localized Archicad.

Can you show a few screenshots?
Are the Doors locked by any chance? Or are they located on a locked Layer?

It is a Teamwork file, but I have reserved all the Doors before changing the IDs, otherwise I could not edit them through a Schedule.
They are not locked, nor are they on a locked Layer.
Here in my screenshot, I've created a new test door, named it "Test" and then in a Schedule renamed it to "Test01".
The ID parameter in the Door Settings is showing correctly, but the Marker shows the old ID. It only updates when I select the door in a plan view and do some change to the settings - for example change its fire rating.

I havent tested it, but I do wonder if Barry's solution to a similar problem would apply here

There is a command you can add into your Work Environment (menus or toolbars or keyboard shortcuts).
But it seems to take quite a long time to run, and that was in an almost empty template with just a few dozen objects placed.

Hi,
I confirm the problem after a test on archicad 23
I also tested the run parameter script without success
For it to update, simply select all the doors in 3D, edit and ok, no need to modify a parameter.

And if you use labels with auto text they will be updated automatically

Yes, I've tested it on an empty default AC Template in AC24 and the bug was there too, not only in my file. Fortunately it seems to be fixed in later versions, or at least in AC27 that I tested.
I think I'll go with labels then, that seems safer. Otherwise it could potentially be an expensive mistake if someone forgot to "update" all doors before the project is submitted.

What about a 'Rebuild & Regenerate' command.
Shortcut is CTRL+ALT+SHIFT+R on a windows machine.

Rebuild & Regenerate has no effect, the Markers do not change.
The only thing that updates them (as far as I know) is to change some random parameter outside of Schedules.
If it was just a single occasion when I would need them to update, opening the 3D model and changing all doors at once, like Yves said, would be the best option.
However, if it is a larger project with many people involved, or a project that is put on hold for some time and then reopened, there is a high chance that this moment would be missed and it can lead to wrong annotations on plan.
