Grid Tool - Custom settings in Sections/Elevations in AC20

cgrimley · ‎2017-02-01

In Archicad 20 I'm noticing that when I change the Grid tool Section/Elevation settings from General to Custom it makes those changes in all sections/elevations that have that Grid. It appears to be a bug since this was never an issue in AC18 (I skipped 19).
Also, the 'Copy From...' option is always grayed out.

This is incredibly annoying since different Sections/Elevations require different heights from the Grid Tool.

Yes, I get the same behaviour, and this is a feature loss in AC20 from AC18.
I will report this to GRAPHISOFT.

Yes, this is a known regression in ARCHICAD, it has been in our database! Thanks for your report!

Any changes there?
How about AC21 ?

Bump.

I'm having the same issue in AC24, is there a work-around or has this been fixed and I don't know how to use it? Would love to be able to specify different heights for the grid for each section/elevation.
