Morph too heavy making Archicad crash

Anonymous

Hello everyone!

I am modelling myself some custom screens based on library objects (Fence and pillar). I used these as a basis because for some strange reason archicad doesn't want to extrude my morphs and also I had better control over the dimensions at the beginning.

After arranging these in the way I need them I converted them into morphs and unified them, however this made the whole file really heavy and working really slow. I tried saving the whole thing as an uneditable object, however that didn't help either.

Is there anyway to simplify my new morph?

Bonnie:

With the Morph selected, you can try the Modify Segmentation... command: Fewer Segments. You can also post a screen shot of the Morph to see if others have ideas about how to simplify the form.

I feel your pain Bonnie.

I really don't like seeing messages like this either. As when I am making something I want to be very smooth like a piece of glass.
