The screen shot is from 2 different files. Both created in with different AC versions (more than likely). I want 300 pixels, which some files have, but some have 72. In both cases the rendering size is the same and the pixel section is greyed out. Wh...

Is there a way to easily transfer colors between the basic rendering settings and the Cinerender engine? The only way I know I know is to open the color wheel, under basic, write down the RGB numbers, open the color under Cinerender and enter them. I...

Anyone else noticed this after updating to Sequoia??? This sucks big time for me. I have/had project previews set for hundreds of files that I routinely open. This is important for my work flow. I am on AC26, so I can't expect Graphisoft to fix it, i...

This might be unavailable in AC, but a need I have none the less. The context is I am trying to make my business more user friendly for help not skilled in AC. I have around 400 different PLN's I maintain and regularly send out PDF sets. Essentially ...

I believe this started after a Ventura update, or maybe AC26 update. CodeMeter no longer starts up automatically at computer start up. The preference pane shows "start services" so I unlock it, start services, lock it back, but it does not restart on...

Ha.. love the term ArchGeezer. I wonder if anyone, besides you and me, are left from when this "forum" was via group email exchange.

I guess it's a permanent issue, and those of us relying on the preview icon are screwed. I have no intention to upgrade AC versions with all the mess (money) involved. It seems GS was told to make a change and had not for AC26. Seems they could have....

I totally relate. I have been using AC since the mid 90's developing a catalog of plans I sell. Since I have a perpetual license at least I can work on them as long as the hardware/software permits. I will stay on AC26. I too am at the end of my time...

That's the same issue for sure. Glad to know it seems wide spread, so maybe apple will fix it sooner than later. Does seem like an indexing issue. Yeah, people with photos identified by the thumbnails are hurting. Thanks

Thanks, the space bar just brings up the standard AC stock image that was there before setting the custom one. Having the rendering (in my case) set for that is really helpful since I have several hundred plans and can't remember which plan is a part...
