Issues with modeling in 3d - height stretch - AC27

Hey all, 

 

Having issues with using the 'stretch height' command in 3D. It seems to jam up the program, the only way to fix the issue is click off along the top bar of the window and then back into the working space. 

 

Seems to be happing across the board with this command in 3d - not just isolated to cabinets. 

the X marks where i need to click to get it back. This is the same across a team of 8.

I received some clarification from GS HQ. So:

 

- Before Archicad 28.1.0 Update Preview, there was no fix at all.

- In Archicad 28.1.0 Update Preview and later, the fix is implemented but it is not activated by default.

- If someone wants to activate it, they have to do the Registry modification. For details, see this post:

The post says that the fix, I quote, "causes a slight performance decrease in drawing update".

I just wish Graphisoft would fix those Kitchen cabinet library objects.

I placed a version 24 cabinet in 28 and it stretches just fine.

It seems to be a problem only with the latest objects (version 27 & 28 - not sure about 25 & 26).

Probably the same since the AC25 cabinet overhaul. Someones potato code...
