What you describe would require that each window has its own layer settings etc. This might be rather difficult as the program is presently organized.
On the other hand, it would be a natural part of the proposal I put in the wish list as "New working environment":
If each drawing had its own window independent of the model editing views, it would be a simple matter for each of those windows to have independent layer and display settings.

is there any chance to set 'plan' or 'section' window default size to MAX somewhere in windows registry or somewhere else. i have replaced older 15" with 17" monitor. somehow ac has kept the working window size from the 15" and i have to max window size every time i start ac.

Anyway - maxing any of the windows in ArchiCAD (as it stands now) is IMHO counterproductive. It is MUCH better to max the resolution, and get as big a monitor as possible (condolences to working ona 15"!!!

Which ArchiCAD, BTW? Please always include the version and OS data ...
ArchiCAD since 4.55 ... 1995

... the thing is that the program window maximizes on new 17" as it did on 15", but it does not maximize project working window (plan/cut) as it does on 15" (i did try this out afterwards). as i understand the problem is somewhere in win reg..

With all due respect, I'm a little astonished to hear that you are using such an old version of ArchiCAD. Have you not found the amazing new features to your liking?




i think there are no architects at product develope team.
do not get me wrong - the Graphisoft's Archicad IS THE BEST THERE IS

Same with the find dialog. Did you know that by option-clicking on any element its qualities will go directly to an open find and select dialog? Sweet. Soon, you've built up a few useful arrays of selection criteria and that makes it easy.
I agree that the newer versions need more training and management effort, but that, coupled with such smooth navigation in 3D, makes the new versions of ArchiCAD vast improvements on version 5.1, that did have elegance.
You aren't related to Adalbert are you?

it is good to have new options with new releases, but why to leave good options behind?
i use find menu to edit all different type of objects there are - i find more convenient to mark a box rather to have to make a default find thingie! the parameters you might want to sort/find the objects next time are not the same for sure as you have selected them earlier - stupid find menu is one of the reasons i do not use newer versions of AC (i use 8.1 for converting files!

no, i am not related to Adalbert

is there any way to get plan and elev windows maximized by default (like there is 'special' menu option in win registry)
