I have to create a bar in a hotel. But in my archicad library I don't have the things for the project. For example: the counter or the reception something like that.
If you can help me...thanks

Valter:

For the counter you can use the slab tool. If the counter has a custom profile, like a rounded edge, you can use the Profile Manager in ArchiCAD 10, or the Profiler Tool in earlier versions.

yes my problem is the counter: the profile that I want it's like a "J".
But I don't know how to reach the Manager Profile in Archicad 10.

If u can send the file it will be really great or explain how I can use the manager profile...
Thanks,
Valter

Valter:

Under the Standard Work Environment, go to Design > Complex Profiles > Profile Manager. To learn about this feature, go to Help > ArchiCAD Help, (this will open Help in your default browser), then click on the "Search" tab and input "Profile Manager" to find the related sections.

One problem you may have with the Profile Manager in 10 is that the profiles won't follow a curved path. The profile itself can be as curvy as you want, but if the bar has radius corners or is otherwise curved in plan this tool won't do the trick. The Profiler add-on may work but is also a bit limited. The best choice may be Archiforma from Cigraph or the Profiler from CADimage.
