I have problem with bim components.
It reports me many errors I can't see in Archicad also with turned on hide menu with option on "check library part..."
One of the error reported is:

C:\Resources\directory\037dea269b8c453cb413219eaa93db00.Graphisoft.ObjectPortal.WopeRole.WC\XML5814\3DMD Railing Vertical Bar V1.01 R16\3DMD Railing Vertical Bar Panel.xml(31) : warning: (in Script_3D) : Uninitialized variable
C:\Resources\directory\037dea269b8c453cb413219eaa93db00.Graphisoft.ObjectPortal.WopeRole.WC\XML5814\3DMD Railing Vertical Bar V1.01 R16\3DMD Railing Vertical Bar.xml(39) : warning: (in Script_1D) : problem in macro call

I used also LP_XML COnverter but it doesn't report me any error.

I tried with:
Code:
LP_XMLConverter convchecklibrary [options] source dest [additionalLib ...]

With the option -check 9
Code:
cd /Applications/GRAPHISOFT/ArchiCAD\ 18/ArchiCAD\ 18.app/Contents/MacOS/LP_XMLConverter.app/Contents/MacOS/
./LP_XMLConverter convchecklibrary -check 9 /Users/msacco/Desktop/LibraryXML/ /Users/msacco/Desktop/LibraryGDLconv/



But the monitor on MAC report me:
Code:
error: Error at command line argument 2; Unsupported argument "-check" for "convchecklibrary" command.


Please help me

This was not completely clear for me from your PDF: does the folder you create the LCF from contain the texture file?

Double door with central mullion?

Bill,
I had the same problem on a fire-rated double door to a commercial kitchen.

Three possible approaches I can think of:
1) A custom door panel that fakes it in 3D, and then add a fill in plan. It's not that hard if your door panels are equal width, if not, it has to be coded manually. 2D needs to be faked in.
2) A regular double door with a column object in the middle, that takes care of the plan view and 3D. 2D same problem as above.
3) Place two ganged doors in the model like you said, but exclude them from scheduling and use a separate, hidden double door that will appear on the schedule instead.

I felt lazy so I did #2 but it all depends on your comfort level. #3 may actually work best.

Forward migration of a parameter to a new glob parameter?

Hi everyone,

I'm trying/learning to migrate a label from AC18 to AC19. There's a new "LABEL_FRAME_OFFSET" in AC19 which I previously use a parameter "frameOffset" in AC18 for the offset value.

According to the reference guide, there's an example;
Quote:
if actualGuid = _startID then
newParameter = oldParameter
parameters newParameter = newParameter
actualGuid = _endID
endif


It seems that I can put;

LABEL_FRAME_OFFSET = frameOffset

but I cant' just put;

parameters LABEL_FRAME_OFFSET = LABEL_FRAME_OFFSET

since it's a global parameter.

Any idea how to transfer the "frameOffset" to "LABEL_FRAME_OFFSET"? Thank you in advance.

Jared, you are correct. The Door object still only passes the A, B, ZZYZX values to the macro.

With the attribute management between files and versions this make it painful for building a personal library of custom door leafs. I have a collection of custom leafs with various kickplates and signage but I'll have to make a new custom leaf each time I want to change the basic paint colour of the rest of the leaf panel... Sad

couldnt you just open the leaf thats made and change the material parameter of the color you wish to change? then save the object and the door should update its color. unless im missing something this works for me.

yeah editing the GDL is easy, but if you need to change the material on just a few leafs, it still involves duplicating the leaf.

I'm not sure if this is mentioned previously in the thread (i'm being lazy), but when one makes a custom door panel, taking the time to give nicely named IDs to the slabs will make updating the GDL later so much easier.

I tried your code with -check 9 on Mac, putting it into the Terminal.
It worked well and it put out a long set of error messages for a single object.

The 1st try did not work, because a file IDEntryList.dbe was missing, which I found on the hard drive (LibDevToolkit) and copied it into the XML folder; after that it worked.
In the converter documentation is written what this file is for.

In the ArchiCAD parlance of increased performance through reduces number of clicks the concept of saving custom leafs for each project doesn't add up. My door leaf collection is already at 20 leafs and I expect it to pass 50. With more than 20 projects needing to use the full collection that could be 1000+ custom leafs that have to be managed. Also, if I have to update one leaf in the collection to a new standard, sign, etc. there is several hours of work to track down all 20+ projects and make the change.

SHOWING SEPARATE SYMBOLS IN THE SCHEDULES

Posted: Fri Aug 07, 2015 1:28 pm (GMT+1)


I have a problem;
I created some electrical objects with the 2d symbol made with FRAGMENT2 in the 2d script with them different visualizations inside "parameters"; a thing like "Realistic","Electrical Symbol", etc.: now, how cancan they be shown by different fragments when I create a schedule or a list?

Attached I show the 4 symbols(created on 4 different fragments) of a single object but obviously the list or the schedule will show me the combination chosen inside "parameters" and not the count of every single fragment.

Thanks

You will need to tell the object what to show in the schedule.
Some thing like............

IF GLOB_CONTEXT = 6 THEN !Schedule
"draw is"
ENDIF

Give it a try.

Has anyone had issues creating a custom door leaf in ArchiCAD 19? My coworkers and I have been trying to create one, but the door tool will not recognize the library part and gives us no options for a custom door.

Custom Window - Turn Plaster

Is there an easy way to create a custom window that still has the turn plaster functionality? It seems there are layers and layers of macros that achieve this with standard windows, however the standard windows cannot be customized enough to fit my needs. Thanks!

edited to include:
Perhaps I should clarify: when I say custom window, I mean in the same vein as what is described here: http://helpcenter.graphisoft.com/tips/how-to-create-custom-window/ There seems to be nothing there about the plaster turn, and I have found nothing else online about creating custom windows.


*I am very new to GDL, although I have a small amount of experience with some other coding languages.

Works fine for me. Either usage error ... or some issue with the particular door that you're using.

Create your door leaf flat on the ground and then save as a door leaf object via the menu in the screenshot here...

Then, select custom as your door leaf type in the door object and your available leaf objects should be visible as seen here.

I saved this test leaf to the embedded library...
