WISH: Make input components more "grasshopper" like

[Joe Putnam]

The fact that one cannot list all stories and then operate in a standard grasshopper way to decide which story to place an element on is not exactly grasshopper like.

I think this goes for all of the the components in the "Input" category as well as Property Settings and Profile Settings. They should also return lists of all items in Archicad and one should be able to use logic to choose the most appropriate item from that list. The current workflow is just to slow when you are creating many objects which all have different settings.

Utilizing the grasshopper addon for real world work like towers is not as optimal as it could be because of this. Especially if one needs to do multiple studies.

Similarly it would be very useful to be able to create/change some of the input items from grasshopper. Looking at you stories/profiles/layers/composites etc........

Absolutely!

Complained about it here before ....

Yeah that's an explanation I came up some time ago as well as this is maybe fine to build something up from sketch but normally not the case how you would utilize grasshopper power within the projects.

Although I think first there should some critical issues be fixed like the classification/property bug (https://archicad-talk.graphisoft.com/viewtopic.php?f=43&t=69047), let's give this wish a boost so that it gains the attention it really needs to make "Wish #12779" a real wish number one.

So any news about this here?
