Hi community, 

 

I'm wondering how could inject properties of a fill (hatch) that I just modified manually its scale to another hatch. it seems that a normal inject properties did not transfert that information.

 

Thanks, 

 

C.

Hi Charles,

 

Thank you for raising this topic! And thank you, Karl, for reporting this to us!

This is indeed a bug that goes back to at least Archicad 24 and it has not been reported previously. I registered it as DEF-15810 in our database and I hope it will be fixed soon.

 

Kind Regards,

I believe this is a bug.   If a fill has a 'custom distortion' geometry method selected in its settings, that as well as everything else is transferred to the other fill... except the scale along each axis associated with the distortion.  I'm reporting this to tech support.

 

Below is a rotated and distorted grid fill on the left ... which, when injected into the fill on the right - which was something totally different, results in what is shown.  Rotation and fill are correct on the right, but the resized/distortion along each of the rotated fill axes is not transferred.  AC 26 (latest build), Apple ARM, MacOS Ventura.  I'm pretty sure that this worked fine many years ago.
