The accoustical ceiling tiles in a group become skewed on half of the rooms when I place a ceiling in the group, but lighting fixtures update correctly.  What causes this and how can I fix it?

I have had this same problem.  I experimented by locking the ceiling grid to a wall face and the grid stays consistent through the copied groups.  However the problem with this scenario is that I don't want the ACT grid to be directly adjacent to the wall (I.E. I'd like to center the grid within the room).  When I center the grid (unlock it from the wall) the grid is correct within the edited group and inconsistent within all the copied groups.

Did you try a dimension with a lock to the grid pattern?  You can then delete the dimension if you want....

I just tried it and that method worked well.  I also used tried placing reference planes and then locking the grid to the reference planes and this method also worked.  So there is two solutions.  Thank you for your help.
