Import Vectorworks Landmark Plant Library

Scott Bulmer · ‎2016-01-31

Greetings. I believe Archicad and Vectorworks are related software. Is there any way to obtain and load Vectorworks Landmark default plant library? Thanks, Scott

The only relation is that both companies belong to the Nemetschek Group. But there is further relation than that.

You best bet would probably be to save those plants you need from Vectorworks as DWG or IFC or some other format that ARCHICAD can read. But I don't think you will just be able to load a Vectorworks library (which is normally stored in a Vectorworks project file) into ARCHICAD.

Thank you Laszlo - is there any add-on or library that you know of or could recommend to make Archicad more useful in landscape architecture? Vectorworks Landmark is a good example of landscape architecture software. Scott

Unfortunately I cannot recommend much.
I only went to bimcomponents.com and here is what I found:
