Dimension Witness Lines Change Scale on Paper

I have had this problem forever. Attached video is from version 23 however this still occurs on current versions and I have never been able to resolve it. I teach Archicad and students encounter this very same issue without any consistencies (many different PCs).

 

Basically when I have a 1:50 view on the layout, it will often show a double length dimension witness line until I go into that view, then back to the layout and refresh.

 

Has anyone ever been able to resolve this? As I mentioned, it is not something I know how to replicate but happens frequently on all versions including v25.

Hello,

 

Thank you very much for sharing the issue and I am very sorry for the experience!

 

From the video and description, I believe this might be related to defect DEF-4509 and/or DEF-3833. The first defect has been fixed in Update 2 of Archicad 25 (401x), while the second defect will be fixed in Update 3 (which will arrive very soon). If the problem persists in Archicad 25 Update 2, I believe that Update 3 will finally solve this problem. 

 

I hope this answers your question. Thank you very much for your understanding! Feel free to reach out to me if you have any further comments!

Best regards,

Minh
