Drawing attributes in PM10

Scott Bulmer

I am unable to find the settings shown in the attached image from PM9 in PM10. These setting relate to placed drawings in layouts and have been very useful to me in the past. Are they now gone for good, or no good as the case may be?
Thanks,
Scott

it is here now for 3D views and 2D drawings.

ArchiCAD 25 7000 USA - Windows 10 Pro 64x - Dell 7720 64 GB 2400MHz ECC - Xeon E3 1535M v6 4.20GHz - (2) 1TB M.2 PCIe Class 50 SSD's - 17.3" UHD IPS (3840x2160) - Nvidia Quadro P5000 16GB GDDR5 - Maxwell Studio/Render 5.2.1.49- Multilight 2 - Adobe Acrobat Pro - ArchiCAD 6 -25

the drawing ID you are refering to shows up only when you drag your mouse over the drawing or select it.

Hey Steve,

Great info for the mouse over drawing to show the ID. AFA the other item from PM9, I meant to ask about the 'Preview on Layout' choices and not the 'Output Color'.

In PM9 one could turn off drawings with a lot of fills after defining its position (either by using bitmap or frame only options). We knew the drawing was there, but didn't have to wait for it to regenerate each time the layout was opened. Of course, once the set was complete, all complex drawings were switched back to vectorial for plotting.

Aside from above, how did you get the column grids to project in 3D in your attached image?

I' hoping this feature is still there.
Thanks again,

Scott

Hey, I don't have that setting in my S/E settings dialog box. Is there another secret setting somewhere that gets that to appear?
Thanks,

Steve,
I'm sorry to bother you with this, but we have the same AC10 build but I don't have the Grid Element Tool as an option in the Tool Settings DB, and I don't see it in the Add-ons folder. Any other thoughts at your convenience?
Thanks,
Scott

no bother at all. I am discovering this stuff with you. This is what makes the forum so useful to me.

Is it here for you ?
