We are experiencing an issue with doors and windows not exporting from
Archicad to IFC. As shown in the snippets, windows are missing randomly.
All windows share the same settings, classifications, etc. This issue is
occurring across several projects in the practice. The IFC...
When I export .lcf file from Library Manager to disc it saves as folder
containing .gsm files instead of single .lcf container. Is there any way
to directly save it as .lcf from project? Operating system used: Windows

I’m trying to achieve a detailed 2D plan for a railing and have come
across an issue with the railing end display in the floor plan. For
railing ends that curve vertically, the 2D plan representation does not
match the 3D geometry (see attached snippets). I have checked this...
Can the 'Slab Opening' subtype be used in any meaningful way?I assume
it's intended to function similarly to the 'Skylight' subtype. I'd like
to script object for slab niche / slab coffer. I don't want to use SEO.
There was a query about this back in 2004, has there been any...
Is there any way to update classification system?I want to update
Uniclass to current version. While importing in Classification Manager,
Archicad append it instead of replacing. Operating system used: Windows

In the meantime I spoke to GS support and received the same advice.
However that setting is not compatible with FM Handover and COBie MVD.
So for my case, where COBie deliverable is required, this data
conversion setting is suggested: Thank you All, I learned something

I’ve carried out a few export tests, and it appears the issue is related
to Zones. When zone layer is hidden, all windows export correctly.
However, I need the zones to be included in the export, as the window
and door properties rely on information from the associated Zones...
I don’t believe that is the case here: 1. As far as I’m aware, windows
from standard Archicad library do not use building materials. 2. The
collision detection setting would not explain why the same window is
sometimes exported and sometimes not.
Our strategy to prevent this issue is to require users to leave the
project before any extended absence — typically for periods longer than
one week. When they return, they rejoin the project.
