But still in SP3 VW 2019 Structural Elements don't merge with other structural objects in section...

It seems some work has been done to solve issues with Structural Members and stories. Hopefully now it's working fine. Take a look at issue this issue: VB-158260 - Structural Member not working with stories The above issue is contained in this release note: https://www.vectorworks.net/downloads/notes/2019SP3_Notes

Many thanks for your answer @Tolu At the end what solved my problem (as you explained...) was that I saved a copy of the working file (a) as a vwx and then opened a new working file (b) and copied all elements form the copy of the working file (a) into the new working file (b) * note that the new working file is already in vwxw format. Luckily no work was lost! Thanks!

@Tolu After doing an administrative release... how can user x commit once again to the PF? User x is trying to save but he gets this message: The commit operation failed because your permissions were changed or the exclusive locks on items you had checked out were released by an Administrator. I guess this is because a Administrative Release has been done. But I though the Administrative Release was in a way temporal... not permanent. What can I do so that user x once again can commit to the PF?

oh and one more thing... it's strange that there are literally no videos about this tool. The only one I found is this that's from the design summit 2016 presentation.

I've also been trying to use the tool but it has resulted impossible to do so. The elevation limits simply do not work... I created this post But then found this one which basically proves that the tool is not working properly.

hey @zoomer I see that you liked the post... how have you been getting on with the structural member tool?

Hi, I would like to know if everybody ese is having this problem or maybe I'm just understanding incorrectly how structural member work. When working in a file that has stories and levels adjusted, I create a structural member and when trying to adjust the Elevations (start bound, start offset, end bound, end offset) the structural member simply does not obey the levels I'm assigning to its boundaries. The element changes height inconsistently, this happens if the element has been drawn as a beam or column. I would appreciate if someone can tell me what I'm doing wrong or maybe it's just a bug and we need to wait for a service pack.
