Impossible to move window of door in elevation AC21

Anonymous

Hello,

For some reason it seems impossible to move a window or a door in the elevation view in Archicad 21 when i type in the displacement, because the window disappears.
When i click on a certain point (icon becomes a black pen) then it doesnt disappears.
See video of the example: https://streamable.com/gk1pz



In previous versions i thought this was possible.

When I click on a point then it will move.

Does anyone else has this problem or a solution?

Thanks

Hello Mestemaker,

Yes, This is indeed a bug, we know about it, and it should be fixed at least in the next main version (but hopefully in 21 as well). The window doesn't actually disappear, it just jumps away with an extremely huge distance.

The workaround is what mikas suggested!

I had to try that, and indeed it does disappear if after giving the displacement value you click the "ok" icon in palette. If you press enter, it will work allright.

And now that I tried it again, it worked perfectly either way. If I use CMD-D, and displacement value it works ok, but if I use Drag+displacement value, the window disappears again.

It seems to be a little sporadic behavior with it now.

It's a bug obviously, but for now you can use CMD/CTRL+D and press the return/enter from your keyboard to accept the displacement value. That seems to work at least for now.
