ARCHICAD 19 Solo is flashing on every zoom/pan
Issue:
ARCHICAD 19 Solo USA language version may blink noticeably whenever the program redraws the 2D views (Floor Plan, Section/Elevation) on Macs with Retina Display.
Solution
Drag the slider of the
2D Drawing Hardware Acceleration to Full in the Work Environment's Advanced Redraw Options section.
Certain Palettes (e.g. Photorendering Settings and Renovation) can't be opened
Issue
When you try to open certain palettes (e.g. Photorendering Settings Palette), nothing happens. The functions still work, you just can't reach the palette.
Cause
The palettes actually open, they just open out of the visible screen area. This is usually because you used your computer with multiple displays, and when you quit ARCHICAD, the palette was on the other screen, so that's the stored place of the palette.
Solution
Unfortunately, the palettes' positions are not stored in the Work Environment, but in some system files, so resetting the Work Environment won't do the trick. You need to connect a display to your computer again, and move the palette back to the main screen manually.
If for some reason the above doesn't help, please contact your local support for help.
