am waiting ernestly for it but i think they should at least try and put in the ability to rotate walls along the z coordinate trim and shape anyhow you want in the section window to appear in 3D

There are many important features missing from archicad.
That is really bad.
We are in 2005, and archicad does not have a scripting environment.
You just have to use API.

Archicad needs to have an option to rotate if not all models walls at least in all 3 directions...then to be able to trim the as we wish etc.

Also an option to make an object editable or transform it to simple polygonal model and then to be able to edit its mesh...

Not asking for nurbs and staf like that but simle poly modelling it is a must!!!

...and to be able to bridge polygons together of course.

It also needs the option to place and / or copy elements in elevation and section.

I always wondered about the interface on placing something new in section... If a section is cutting along the X-axis, and your section shows the Y-Z axis, how do you control the Y-coordinate of what you are placing?

Would there be a "distance from section cut"? That's a little strange, since they are placed a bit arbitrarily. An absolute coordinate would be neat, but not something you would always know.

Would copy be more like "offset along the same axis as the section?"

It's a request I've seen a lot, and always wondered how it would actually function (more as an intellectual exercise than anything else).
