Have you ever wanted to copy, move or delete multiple elements from one story level to multiple of them?
Well, Archicad has a feature that can help you with this task to do it in a single click. The function is named Edit Elements by Stories.., and you can find it under the menu Design, this tool will allow you to select different elements types and story levels, and choose an action for them, it might be delete, copy or cut.

So basically you will be able to:

• Delete the selected elements from the chose stories.
• Cut them and paste them in stories of your choice
• Copy them to multiple story levels.

Those elements will not remain linked, therefore, as they’re independent elements if you delete afterward any of them, it will not affect the original element used. This can be a good time saving feature if you need to modify a specific elements type in multiple floors at the same time.
