I’ve updated to the latest Data Link Exporter for Archicad24. While in AC24 I go to Windows>Palettes>DataSmith but the Datasmith Direct Link Toolbar doesn’t show…Help!
Hello ,
Thank you for posting your question in the community and sorry to hear about the troubles. The Palette does not get automatically docked somewhere so it is possible it is behind something else or a second monitor.
I recommend you save your Work environment in Archicad and reset that to the default from the Out of the Box. Here are the guides to get you familiar with this menu:

Then try to open the Datasmith Palette, from the Windows > Palettes > Datasmith.
Hope this helps and if you are still having issues please let us know.
Kind regards,

Vincent,
Thank you for directing me to look at my existing palettes. Normally when selecting palettes it will show up on the project screen and I manually direct where I want the palette to reside. What it was doing was automatically docking so I did not see it, and in repeating trying to activate the palette by going to windows/palettes/datasmith I was toggling the datasmith palette on and off if that makes sense.
Now I can at last develop my renderings and go back to my model, make changes and synchronize back and not have to start from scratch.
What a relief you have saved me countless hours.
