finally switching over to the .libpack system for various clients. I really love the features and flexibility of the linear title in the global libraries; but I can't seem to figure out how to get the drawing name/scale to justify left. Any tips or other titles to look at in...

I feel really stupid that I can't figure this out:existing wall, new window. demo plan shows existing wall solid, and portion with new doors/windows as dashed (demo this area). I want to show it dashed in elevation as well, but the new window is hidden, no matter the combina...

would love to be able to use the surface painter on all elements (does not work on stairs/railings/curtain walls) and to be able to see the surface names (not just the first 8 digits of the surface name).

in this instance, my computer did not even "sleep". Laptop was open, I simply left to take my kid to a dentist appointment. was gone about an hour and a half. Came back; screen saver not on, computer not asleep. But archicad seems to have been attempting to shut down/log out...

mystery (sort of) solved! if a new door/window occupies (even in part) the opening of a demo door/window in an existing wall, the new opening in the wall will not show, even where it is not completely contained within the demo opening. Using find & select, I was able to loca...
