Transfering Details

[Brett Brown]

Hi All, Is there a way of copying an Independent Detail from one project to another with same Reference ID, Name,etc? Trying to save opening up a new Independent Detail window, Typing the same ID/name and then copy/pasting. I want to edit it in the destination project. Thanks.

I have a question. Archicad 10.

If I have a master library of details in the firm, Can I just link to them from my project file? I tried to link them from the organizer, but I can't refer to drawing, since I don't have anything to refer to. Is there another option? Merging? or do I need to input each detail to be used into the detail window of the project file?

How is your library organized? Format, etc.? What do you mean by link?

If the details are contained with a pln file and there is a view-per-detail, then by browsing in organizer to the pln file containing the details, you can drag and drop those views onto layouts.

In 10, you can't go much further. In 11, you can create any number of marker bugs (detail, section whatever) that refer back to the placed drawing.
