Hilti Profis Engineering - Anchor layout dimensions are not showing or adjustable?

When using the masonry fixings module of the software there are no options available to me for being able to adjust the dimensions or layout of the anchors?

Thank you for your enquiry. The masonry module anchor arrangement is limited to 1, 2 or 4 bolt connection following the European design guidance. That being said you should still see and be able to adjust the spacing horizontally or vertically between a pair of anchors as per the screen shot below. Please not that you are not able to adjust single anchors within the group. I would suggest checking your region settings within the software ( The gearwheel icon) when you open the software and the sub masonry settings are activated then try and open a new model and select the predefined anchor arrangement and see if it shows you the dimensions that you can edit.

I have checked the 'design settings' and the country is correctly marked as the United Kingdom, but is also greyed out so doesn't allow me to change it. There are no settings which seem to be out of the ordinary, however it still doesn't even show the dimensions of the anchors, let alone allow me to change them. I would be very grateful for any assistance you can provide as this project is urgent and needs to be completed as soon as possible?

Thank you for the addition information, I've attached a PE file that I hope you can download to your device and then simply drag and drop it into the software (Top R/h corner of main page) and see if this resolves your issue.

Thanks for sending this through. Unfortunately when opening the file it has made no difference and still will not allow me to edit or adjust the layout/dimensions of the anchors! See the attached screenshots. I would be very grateful for a swift response/solution.

Ok, I'm sorry that didn't help. One last thing to check is that you have the anchor dimensions activated. I've attached a screenshot below with how to access the sub menu via the 'Eye' icon from within the masonry module and with what I would typically expect to see activated.

Thank you very much, that was the solution! I have no idea why 'anchor layout measurements' was unticked. Many thanks for your help
