SketchUP into ArchiCAD?

DaveOlufs
Participant
I'm listening to a Webinar about AC and the presenter has stated that one can bring SketchUP files directly into AC. I have a Mac and have not been able to do this. What do I need to do?

There are some many objects to incorporate and I can't get to them... Please advise.

Thanks for the information. I guess you can add v13 to the mix... It's unfortunate but I'll make-do without SketchUP and the windows applications.

Thanks again.
