Undocumented Improvements in AC16

JaredBanks — Thu, 25 May 2023 16:01:01 GMT

Last year Link started a thread on undocumented changes to AC 15. I thought it'd be great to start a list of undocumented changes in ArchiCAD 16.

I've written a bit about each of the 3 changes I'm aware of in a blog post that I'll use to spread the word about this list. I really loved the thread from last summer, so here's hoping to some good surprises here.

Here's the post: http://www.shoegnome.com/?p=785

Here's the start of the list...

1) The Z-buffer Rendering Engine is gone.
2) Now you can click on a special snap point for the first point of a split command.
3) Empty Opening (ArchiCAD 15) has become Simple Window Opening (ArchiCAD 16). I haven't explored enough to know the differences, but... it did mess up my window schedules that were excluding Empty Opening. So that's probably documented in the window changes, but I thought I'd add the info here anyways.

Who's got others?

Wall Priorities and Composite priorities can now be set at odd numbers too.

There is also this article in ArchicadWiki ... http://www.archicadwiki.com/ArchiCAD16ChangesGuide

I am happy that the file history is back in library manager.
