Bar table object

[Anonymous]

Hi there,

Just wanting to ask if anyone could possibly help me find a bar table?

I can't seem to find it in the library, and i've searched on google, but nothing comes close to it.

Thanks for any help

Sorry I don't have clear picture of what you mean by that, but:
You could try Archibase.
http://archibase.net/
You will have to register and
install a title bar, but all in all
pretty quick.
Or have you tried Archicads
own free gdl depository?

You don't need to register or download any toolbars from this version of the archibase website -

Great!
Now I can get rid of the real estate wasting title bar.
Thanks

I like the Archibase initiative... Truly...

But... Don't know about you folks... but some (a lot) of those 3ds models converted to gsm are a complete disaster (sorry to say)...

I know they are free and available by altruistic fellows that have the best intentions...

But professional users need more reliable models...

Sometimes I feel like wining a jackpot when I find a good one...

We need not only "quantity"... but also "quality".

Sorry for the bitter... but thats how I feel.

Thanks for the warning Braza,
BEFORE I get a wheel in the ditch.

I know it must be complicated, but when you
have time, would you mind listing a couple of
your most notable concerns?
Warning signs?

Paulo, I have to agree. There are many 3DS conversions which
apart from size just cannot be of use in ArchiCAD.
The problem lies in that you do not know what is usable 'til you unzip the part.
Very hit/miss

So let's get scripting? al's initiative? Do we need something to do if the paying work does not fill our days? Is the beach/beer/whatever gives you pleasure more important (OK, OK ... stop laughing!)

My view is that ArchiCAD is underestimated as a tool to make furniture and new objects. Basic Shapes can be used to model a Bar Table (or a Bar stool?) Use your imagination and combine different Shapes. The picture under shows how to change color and size. In the end, use the Group function to make ONE "object" out of it. (Edit - Grouping - Group)
GOOD LUCK!
