About model and data exchange with 3rd party solutions: Revit, Solibri, dRofus, Bluebeam, structural analysis solutions, and IFC, BCF and DXF/DWG-based exchange, etc.
In a test to translate ArchiCAD 2D drawings to VectorWorks, I have gotten what looks like an explosion of lines. Can anyone recommend a way to share data between ArchiCAD ---> to ---> VectorWorks?
The last time I tried was in 2005 and it was nearly impossible. As I recall there was a big problem with fills. I think we ended up getting something usable but I wouldn't recommend it as a regular practice (unless VectorWorks has improved their DXF/DWG output since then). Actually we were trying to get drawings from VW into AC but I imagine the reverse is just as bad.
