In this Archicad tutorial video I talk about copying between different templates, moving objects between files, and the horrors of Master_GDL Objects.
What do you do when you want to add Attributes and Favorites from one ARCHICAD file to another?
There are all sorts of interesting things you can do in ArchiCAD if you simplify your Attributes to almost zero. Here’s where to start.
I love this post. Guest Blogger Nathan Hildebrandt starts with Building Materials, then leads you down a path towards reinventing how you think about BIM and use ArchiCAD. It’s a great example of how focusing on improving how you use a piece of software will make you a more valuable member of the AECO team. Even if you don’t use ArchiCAD, this is a must read.
Here’s my second video on Building Materials in ArchiCAD 17. I pick up right where we left off in the last video.
I asked on the Shoegnome Facebook page what my next ArchiCAD tutorial video should be about. There was some interest in Pen Sets, but the overwhelming majority of people wanted more on Building Materials in ArchiCAD 17. So here’s the first of at least two videos.
Learning about ArchiCAD to teach you about Revit. What another comparison video and some ArchiCAD-centric posts have in common.
This video is in support of this BIM Engine post I wrote. You should read that post to understand more about what’s going on. A few more notes: At the end of the video I say “copy in 3D”. I meant “copy 3D elements in elevation and section”. Obviously. Sorry about that. The danger of soft language. But a verbal slip at the end of a seven minute video isn’t
I got a weird error message recently. An attribute went missing. Find and Select with the criteria set to ‘element type is All and attributes are Missing’ didn’t work. It seemed likely that it was an attribute of an attribute that was bad (an image associated to a material, for instance). Thus I needed a different solution. How do you find that? Backups. And thinking about what changed. I did
