Hei every one. Iam working with landsacpe and urban designing. And i decided to use archicad. It started very good and flexible, but after i draw the landscape and tried to put roads so the problems just show up. the problem is that when i intersection the road with landscape in solid element operation tool, so it tooks hour to finish the job. I am really confused to how work faster. I do not really want start drawing with hands

Hej,
Call Graphisoft Norway and they'll help you. The area is not that big unless you have too many mesh nodes which could be your problem. Norway is however not flat like a pancake...😉
