NEW Wall tool features

Studio Precht · ‎2024-09-23

Using this preview of AC28, I couldn't see any improvement regardless of the Wall tool. It is the same probably since the first AC version. I don't know what is happening in Graphisoft and why these things are still the same, but as for the Columns, Beams, Stairs, Curtain Walls, and Rails. We would like to have an updated tool for Walls:

Walls:

Segments – where we can apply different composites, thicknesses, and gradual reduction of the thickness
Sloping – one of the wall ends is lower than the first one, so we don't need to trigger any window or cut option/opening. Those are basic shapes.

Best regards,

Milan

The segments already exist if you group the walls, there is a option to draw multiple segments walls that end up in a group. But sloping is very necessary

@Ricardo Heim Grouped selection is not a substitute for proper segmentation. For that to be the case groups would have to be made proper BIM elements - which they of course should be but are not.

Yes, please! I sometimes have to use Revit and this is actually one aspect where Revit is way ahead of archicad. I can not believe there is no feature like this yet! Essential for complex facades. You can not even make a wood panel facade with vertical boards in archicad.
