Problem
In Archicad, modeling complex geometries—such as sloped underground structures or multi-directional surfaces—often exceeds the capabilities of standard tools like Wall, Slab, Roof, or Mesh. While the Morph tool offers freeform modeling, it lacks seamless integration with BIM workflows, particularly concerning automatic material-based connections and precise elevation control. This limitation leads to cumbersome workarounds and inefficiencies in the design process.
Idea
Introduce an advanced freeform modeling tool that combines the flexibility of the Morph tool with enhanced BIM integration. "A one for all Tool"
Key features should include:
-
Automatic Material-Based Connections: Enable elements created with this tool to automatically connect with other elements sharing the same building material, ensuring seamless integration.
-
Toggleable Connections: Provide the option to disable automatic connections when necessary, offering greater control over element interactions.
-
Precise Elevation Control: Allow users to define anchor points with specific elevation values, either relative to sea level or a custom reference height, facilitating accurate placement in 3D space.
-
Enhanced Editing Capabilities: Incorporate intuitive editing features, such as adjustable nodes and edges, to allow for easy manipulation of complex forms.
