Scia Connection

Hello!

The roadmap states that:
https://graphisoft.com/product-roadmap/released
With the Archicad-SCIA connection, engineers can open the structural analytic model from Archicad directly in SCIA, without having to save files manually.


However, I can't find any sort of information regarding that. The only way is to save as SAF and then manually import and try to keep it consistent.
SCIA uses a 
different cloud than Archicad's BIMCloud. It's very frustrating.

Is there any sort of development planned? It seems like a forgotten feature.

Plus, I can't seem to be able to copy/ paste/ mirror Loads, I have to manually input every single load on a slab for example.

Hi @vdentello ,

 

You can download the plugin for this from SCIA's website.
