Any news on DDSCAD?

Since DDSCAD was merged under graphsioft, I haven’t heard anything about this. 
Will we get DDSCAD in Archicad 26?

Well, this happend. DDScad is now part of graphisofts solutions...as a separate product.

Unlikely to be part of Archicad at this stage as it appears to be a Windows only product, You could upset a large number of users on macOS who can't use it if it was included.

Well hopefully that indicates an end to choking AC with software for other disciplines and GS can now focus on delivering more of the architectural Wishlist.

It's interesting, in a mysterious way, that it is part of Graphisoft and not part of Nemetschek.

Evidently DDS has been a part of Nemetschek since 2013.

Sad/funny question on their website: Graphisoft – Who are they?

Thanks for that link... had no idea about any of the info presented there.   It is interesting (in a still mysterious way), that while Graphisoft is such a huge supporter of OpenBIM ... that they are looking at integrated solutions.
