mtldesigns Posted yesterday at 02:27 AM Share Posted yesterday at 02:27 AM Ok I thought I was seeing things... or saw things IDK. I opened a plan I last opened and saved in x16, and my switches are "ganged" as a block. I like this, but how did this happen? I know I didn't do it on purpose.. and if its a X17 thing, why are the models I am working in 17 not doing this? I don't see any setting for this kind of thing.

ConnorE Posted 22 hours ago Share Posted 22 hours ago Howdy! We changed the way Ganged Electrical works in X17. In previous versions, these blocks were created automatically when switches/outlets were within 9" of each other. Now, these blocks get created as the result of multi-selecting the Electrical objects and clicking the "Make Ganged Electrical Block" action on your edit toolbar. When you load in an X16 plan that has the old Ganged Electrical, we automatically convert them to the new version. This is the only time the new Ganged Blocks are created automatically. Hope this helps! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More of a follow up on your response Connor, and its more of just a curiosity thing. Why in 16 does it do this automatically, but not 17? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
