Hi there. I have been asked about how to unlock current library or purchase a full licence. I have stopped to sell licences and in general discontinued work on this library. Everyone who still interested to use this template and library - instruction how to remove licence protection: first extract LCF file (library container file). After extraction search for folder Macros. In this folder there is a file called LICENSE. Open this library part file using password neilsmith. Change Master Script to the line _licence=1
Save change to the file. After modification done - pack everything back to LCF.

When you are making proper construction documentation trying to follow all national CAD standards - facing to these small limitations of ArchiCAD tools. I just tried to create more advanced system. Another example - brick count tool, that can be placed on top of wall section to show bricks - as temporary solution using GDL programming.I created a similar object for the same purpose.
Or storey elevation marker with FFL, SSL and FCL.I don't understand this - you mean a custom dimension, or how are these linked to the elevation marker? I thought FFL = finished floor level, FCL = finished ceiling level, but what is SSL? Sorry, I'm not familiar with UK acronyms.

I just tried to create more advanced system.I agree, it's painful sometimes to squeeze proper looking technical drawings from a model, there is so much to add which is not feasible to model, or should be abstracted.
I also implemented library protection by connecting it to ArchiCAD licence number. Originally was idea that workers wouldn't take a library from the office and use it somewhere else. Currently I set, that library will work until September this year in any computer.Could you explain how to protect a library with an "expiration date"? So far I only protected certain objects with a password, I guess that can be considered the barefoot solution.
