Archicad 17 custom template and LISTS

Anonymous
Not applicable
Hi everyone,
I've been working on our company's AC template (using the .tpl format), and I'm trying to add custom lists to implement takeoffs of elements in viewpoints other than the plan view.

I created several custom lists (both "base" and "graphic" ones), and saved my template. One I closed and re-opened the file, the lists were gone.

Just to make sure, I tried one more time, and it is the same: once I close the .tpl file, I loose my lists.

Is this a bug, or it is just not possible to customize lists in AC .tpl file format?

Thanks!

Enrico

You can create and save lists into a template. Question though: Are you doing a File/Save As... after making changes to the template?

I am using "save as", so the file remains as .tpl.
