OpenBuildings Designer CONNECT missing tools

I am currently following the OpenBuildings Designer CONNECT course provided by LinkedIn.  I have installed the software out of the box, and there seems to be a few Structural tools missing.

1. when placing timber joists, the Support Options tool doesn't appear in the ribbon.

2. If I want to extend the joists, the Extend Form tool is missing.

I can work around it, but not as efficient, and hope to have the tools to hand in future.

I am doing the course as a refresher as been out of the loop for the past two years, so any help will be appreciated.

Regards,

Adrian

  • Hi Adrian,

    Thanks for raising your issue.

    Can you please let me know which version of OBD you were using?

    I have shared the recorded video showing the placement option for the timber Joist and where you can find the extent form to extend the Joints. 

    Please follow the video and share your outcome with us.

    HTH,

    Regards,
