I use grid lines to do this, just turn off markers in both 2d and 3d

millarm:

The Morph Tool can be used to draw lines that will show in both 2D and 3D. Being just lines, they do not render.

You should add a Signature to your Profile (click the Profile button near the top of this page) with your ArchiCAD version and operating system (see mine for an example) for more accurate help in this forum.

You could try saving your 3d view as a 3d document and annotate that.

I presume this method would still work - http://www.archicadwiki.com/HowToSuperimpose2dFloorPlanOnto3dModel

I don't know if the lines would display in a 3d document, as the above article states that it only works in the 3d window in openGL mode, but it's an old article and things change so give it a go and see what happens!
