use start edition if you have a full version keyplug?

jbArch — Fri, 24 Feb 2012 01:06:35 GMT

I have an opportunity to collaborate with someone who uses the START edition, but I use AC15, full license. I know the limitations of exchanging files between these programs — I can open the SE files, but they cannot open my AC15 files.

But I'm wondering: Is it possible to install the Start Edition on my machine, and operate it with my AC15 wibu key? I regularly open older versions of AC, so it would be similar to that.

If this works then it would be possible to collaborate on a project without requiring the other folks to upgrade to full Archicad.

cheers,
JB

The SE version will work with an AC15 keyplug in the same way as older versions of ArchiCAD.

Thanks!
I'm kind of surprised, but I'll give it a try.
