Multi-story Zones
I would love to have Zones in ArchiCAD be story sensitive.
So many other element types already are. What am I talking about? This:
 Here are the ‘Show on Stories’ options for Walls |
AND this:
 Here are the options for Slabs |
I’m starting to use zones a lot more for various scheduling purposes (more on that soon, I promise). I’d like to have one zone for stairs, but have it show up on multiple stories. Right now my options (for a 3 story space) are to have 3 stacked zones instead of one 3 story zone or have one zone and label the other stories with the text tool. I don’t like either solution.
I want both the Zone Stamp and Zone Background to be story sensitive.
I’ve created a poll on the ArchiCAD-Talk Forum; take a moment and please vote.
It’s probably too late for ArchiCAD 16, but maybe for 17…
In the meantime, here’s a challenge to all you GDL wizards (like Master Script and CADswift): Can an improved Zone Stamp be story sensitive? Having a story sensitive Zone Background would be nice, but the Zone Stamp is what’s really important to me. I’ll praise you to no end and plaster links to your Zone Stamp all over my blog if you can do it!
