Something has changed in AC and I can't figure out what it was. See attached video clip. I have an existing dimension line. I select the line, then I ALT-click the line to activate. Then I can CTRL-click on a point to extend the dimension. I used to ...

My Archicad 26 USA has got some problems! I restarted my computer yesterday. Today it's doing what I'm showing in the video. This is becoming more and more common. Annoyingly long delays between keystrokes and mouse clicks and menu choices, etc. If I...
