The problem is when the boss, or anyone who has less experience with Archicad jumps into a project and makes changes. Or worse will make changes like a stretch and then stretch it back by eye. No one knows that it was changed until later in the project when stuff does not line up right or dimension correctly. A quick way to highlight untrue elements would be an enormous help in trouble shooting.

Also the blue snap guides can be used - they don't lock the wall angle, but you will snap to them when the mouse is close.

Yes, graphic override would be nice. For detecting non-orthogonal elements, this label (if you don't mind using the label tool) comes handy. https://bim6x.com/blog/fixing-untrue-models

Hi All,
Thank you very much for the discussion!
I am happy to say we took notice of this wish and I have added it to our Wish List database (please refer to it as IDEA-4528). Hopefully, our Product Management team will adopt this one in the future. Personally, I think it would be a very useful feature!
Thank you all once more, and I wish you a great day!
Best regards,
Minh
