Flux plugin, ArchiCAD and grasshopper

[Anonymous]

Is anyone currently using Flux and ArchiCAD together? Does Graphisoft have a response for this new product, or a plug-in in the works?

Flux has a plugin for grasshopper. Does that mean there is no need to have a plugin for Flux and ArchiCAD directly? Revit does have a plugin for Flux.

Thanks.

Did you get anywhere with this query @LINZ?

I've used Flux with AutoCAD/Revit and as I'm switching to Archicad, I'd like to know how I can incorporate it into my workflow

Flux has an open API. So it is technically possible.

I don't think the Grasshopper connection is the solution here.

But somebody has to develop this and this takes time (and thus cost). As Flux is a commercial initiative (subscription service) it depends on the need for it, I guess. I believe that the Grasshopper connection was pushed by some big ARCHICAD clients.

This is what I found on a Flux Community Board:

https://community.flux.io/questions/2825/will-there-be-any-development-for-archicad-coming.html

So it seems it will come at some point but not in the near future.

Actually, there is already a wish on the forum:

I personally see Flux becoming an important data exchange platform, so it would be great to have a connection to it.
