Security Warning

We are currently in the certification process. After its completion, we will be able to sign our files with a security certificate, and once approved, this message will no longer appear. Until the files have this certificate, Windows will show a warning before every software launch. Please do not worry and select the Always Load option, the application was verified by the Autodesk team before being published on the App Store.

 

Family error message

The application notifies us that it was unable to load the family file HiddenLinkElement.rfa into the project. The installer should create this file under the default folder Plugbim PlugbimNotes.bundle. If this file is missing, it will not be possible to create new notes or manipulate relationships between objects.

 

Loose note

A situation where the selected note under the schedule has handles for moving and can be manually dragged and repositioned. This is intentional behavior because the note needs to be loose so that the schedule can drag the note along to a new position when moved. This cannot be blocked, because one of the key functionalities of the application would stop working. That's why the user has tools such as attach and detach, which allow them to manipulate the relationship between these two objects as needed. If the relationship exists, the note will always align with the schedule. If the relationship is broken, the note becomes a separate object whose position and size are independent of the schedule.
