I have tried with Objects, Module, but I can't find edit mode for the GSM objects (only for Attributes) and the module I can place it only in the floor plans, not in the sections.
I just want to make a simple group of lines and hatch in a ''Block'' that can be placed on several places in the sections and when edited, the changes to be applied everywhere.
Could anybody help me? I use Archicad 22.
Thank you!

Hello,
You can also copy (Ctrl- or cmd-C) the 2D elements you've drawn in your plan view and then :
1 - paste them into the 2D Symbol window of the object (to create a new object, go to File->Libraries and objects->New object...).
2 - After that, just write the following line in the 2D script window:
