Finding drawn inaccuracies

st
Booster

Hi there,

 

I wonder if there is any helper (like duplicate checker) to select all the elements in a plan view and then AC highlights the reference points that are really close to each other (according to some tolerance)? That could be a way to find drawn inaccuracies....

 

Thank you in advance..

Not that I know of.  However, even very small modeling inconstancies will show up graphically when materials/surfaces are not perfectly aligned.  A line will show up in a 3d view, Section, Elevation between elements for as little a .001" deviation - perhaps less - I didn't check for deviations smaller than that.  If the elements are aligned perfectly, there will be no line between them.

Hello Steve,

thank you for your answer.

 

I just wondered if there is a tool for Archicad to pinpoint the inaccuracies for the whole project, because in a large scale project the solution you provide is not feasible.
