BY LAYER OVERRIDES

I hate to sound ACADish (which I've never used) but can we PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE install some sort of BYLAYER function into the Layer Combos? We need to be able to globally change PENS / LINETYPES with an override based on which combo we in. EG. Walls...

Editable Hotspots in PROFILER

I am making a pitch for creating EDITABLE hotspots along a PROFILERS path. This would allow us to not only change a path after the profile has been made, but also to ADD Z values to the nodes of the path. I am thinking of gable end rake cornice. I ha...

Quicklayers pallette

This is what should be a good tip, but unfortunately it's a wish because Archicad needs to improve the quicklayers. Does this ever happen to anyone else. You're cruising along turning on and off layers. You click on something, right click, pull down ...

Does this list get read by Graphisoft?

We were told, time and time again, that the place to send wishlist items was to Graphisoft directly. Has that now been canned and replaced by this forum? I certainly hope so, here we can see each others wishes, debate their validity and refine our id...

!Restored: Controlling Distant Elevation Pens

I spent the entire day yesterday decoding the mystery of how ArchiCAD determines what pens to use to represent objects in the Distant area of a section or elevation. How completely bizzare! ArchiCAD needs to add some form of control for how this is a...

Longer sheet titles needed

One wish I have for PlotMaker 3 is to give it the ability to handle more letters in the layout names (used for sheet titles). The limit seems to be 31 letters which is fine most situations, but when you have long titles for a small house project like...

Line Extras in 3D Window

How about having the Line Extra tools (intersect, fillet, chamfer) made available for use in the 3D window. I find myself reaching for those tools when I'm cleaning up walls in the 3D window.

Mesh shapes

I think it would be a great "modelling tool" if the mesh tool would allow elevated gridpoints to be placed outside the groundshape of the mesh. In other words, if my groundshape is 10x10 mtr I can't drag (elevated) grid hotspots outside these 10 mete...
