Module stuck in library

Tom Krowka

Somehow I have several modules in the embedded library. Not sure exactly how I put them there, but would like to delete them or unlink. Problem is that I can't delete, move or anything from the library manger. They don't show up in the Module manager. Not sure what to do about this.

Thanks Tom

Have not found the solution. I think it has something to do with cut and paste however. A couple of mine had elements that I had cut and pasted from one module to another. Haven't had time to really determine if that's the issue or not however.

Tom, I checked here what might be behind this. It looks like similar thing can happen if you break or delete a hotlink.

With ArchiCAD 17 we have an algorithm that can clean up the embedded library but it is only available in Teamwork mode. Starting from the next hotfix, this will be available for single plans as well.

Good to hear. And yes, I did break a couple of hotlinks so it would appear your premise is correct.
