ARCHICAD 15

All the Changes in ArchiCAD 15 that we love, but won’t be Advertised

Most of us have read about ArchiCAD 15 on the ArchicadWiki. If you want a refresher, read this and also the official changes guide. Many of us are even using ArchiCAD 15 on a daily basis and enjoying the new features like the shell tool and the 3D editing planes. But have you also read this list from the forum: Undocumented Changes in V15. There are a lot of little
