Hi,

 

I cant seem to locate the roofing extras options from the "Design Extras" tab, its imply not there.

 

I have installed, reinstalled the goodies and I have loaded up the accessories library to the project too. Also run update checks but to no prevail its just not appearing in the design extras tab, (only the truss maker).

 

any advice? anyone else experienced this?

 

Software: Educational License Archicad 26 

 

Thanks in advance.

Hi @Roysmith10 ,

 

If you go to 'Options / Add-On Manager', do you see the goodies listed ? If so, can you check them ?

It is a known issue if you try to install the goodies after you have already run Archicad.

To fix it you must reinstall Archicad.

No need to un-install.

Just re-install and use the 'repair' option if you are offered it.

DO NOT start Archicad after the installation.

Install the goodies.

Then update Archicad with the latest update.

Now start Archicad and all should be fine.
