Archicad Icons

Can we please have a bigger difference between the Archicad version icons, maybe the version number included in the icon. We generally run the last 3 versions and they are all very similar. Can the .bpn icon also be made very different to the standard .pln icon, maybe make it red.

Hello,

 

Thank you very much for sharing this great idea!

 

I am happy to say we took notice of this wish and I have added it to our Wish List database (please refer to it as IDEA-12126). Hopefully, our Product Management team will adopt this one in the future.

 

Best regards,

One of our members of staff did this and it caused us a whole world of pain. Archicad thought it had been pirated after editing the icon file and we were summonsed by GSHQ!

Wow. Thanks for the warning.

 

Something must have changed after 24 then, after the original tip. If you follow the link there seems to be no more icon-files from 25 on.

 

Maybe I'll just wait and see if GS implements this, too risky for me to hasle up everything.
