Situation:
We manually place groups of objects in the drawing, based on which we create a cost estimation.
If the estimation is approved, we proceed to detail the objects (replacing the object with a detailed favorite). Based on this, we create a quotation.
Currently, the replacement process is done manually, which is very time-consuming. Regularly, there are 2,000–4,000 objects in a single drawing.
In the meantime, we can enrich data by exporting it to Excel and importing it back into Archicad.
Request:
Can we write a script to automate the replacement process?
