I too am puzzled by the extent of the description of this upgraded condition that is not available. Could it be that it is a bug??

My zone settings is grayed out as well.
and instead of Settings, the tab is called "Custom Settings"
not like in the new 17 video on the youtube channel.

anyone know how to fix this?

Gentleman,

You need to use the "Zone Stamp 1 17" and "Zone Stamp 2 17" objects. These are available in the International library
and at http://www.bimcomponents.com. I will have to check why these were not included with the default USA library,
but for now you can download them here:
Zone_Stamp_1 17
Zone_Stamp_2 17

Sorry about the confusion.

Best regards,

Ditto....
The drag to Archicad17 feature doesn't ever finish the download.
something looks like it is broken.

If the drag to ArchiCAD function is not working you should make sure the GDL Web Control/Plug-in is up to date. If that does not correct the issue then you may need to try another web browser or check to see if another application, such as anti-virus, might be impeding the process.

In the meantime I am happy to send the objects to users in North America. Just send an email to our North American Technical Support team and we can send you a file transfer.

Nope, still hangs at 99% and then finishes with an error message.
I'll send you an email.

I am wondering if this has anything to do to the fact that you cannot technically "place" a Zone Stamp in ArchiCAD.
You can only place Zones that will display a Zone Stamp when placed.

I tried this and I could not drag it to ArchiCAD, it didn't work for me either. However, I could drag any normal object.

Anyway, I have forwarded this issue to GS.

This is the first time I have tried to use the portal from a browser. I can't get any object to drag and drop.
I am using Chrome or IE and both act the same except in Chrome I can rotate the object view.
In either browser, I don't see the menu on the left side like in the video.

I have turned off the add blocker but still no go.

Why can't we simply have the option to download the object to hard drive?
