Break command ?

[Anonymous]

Ok, I give up, again.
Tried the search function here.
Tried the guid site:archicad-talk.graphisoft.com break and then break command
Tried the manual.
Tried the wiki.
Tried the ac help.
Guess what?
No mention of break command or break.
Did I forget the secrete code, again?
Ok, hit me, what the hell did I miss?
Thanks

Hello Karl and Bier Designs,
I found this post by Karl where indeed he uses the
term "break command" but I think Karl meant
"split". Please see:

Matthew,

That is good to know.

Since switching to AC I have tried to spend as little time as possible on the PC (being a long long long time mac user). Still, I am support in my office for both platforms and try to learn as much as possible.

Indeed I did. Since I've used the shortcut cmd/ctrl-B for the split command since 6.5 (I think it was standard then?), I think 'break' and forget sometimes that the official term is 'split'. I did say 'split' in the more recent illustrated post, so I am trainable. 😉

Thanks, Peter, and sorry for the confusion, Bier and others.

Cheers,
Karl

Well, it looks like it's time for me to make another stage appearance.
Since I'm now back from my break.
Thank you one and all!

Often when I get stumped like this, I leave a forum post, & turn off the screen.
Then most times, I get on my bike and ride hard into the abyss of my favorite dirt trial(s).
Looks like it worked again this time thanks to all the contributors!

Just shows to go ya. The search function needs upgrading, maybe more than the program?
Except for winder stairs.
Thanks again

Ok, got it!

Much better, no showing at ends, and yet sections show cleaner.
Thanks Karl for starting me in the right direction.
Sorry I could not find your most resent post which said Split.

Everyones comments helped in one way or another:-))
Now I just gotta sneak a 16d sinker in and a 8 full head sheeting sideways out of fills and that would be, (as my sons say) sweet!
