export/import all Projekt XML-files at once

 

The ability to export and import all XML files at once would greatly improve coordination between Archicad files, especially in projects split into different files.

 

In these projects, it's not only important to keep the attributes in sync but also the project info, graphical overrides, layout book fields, IFC and DWG exporters, etc. It would also help with Template migration

Currently, there are at least 20 different places where XMLs can be exported in Archicad, and each one has to be done manually for each file!

 

When exporting and importing:

  • It would be important to select which XMLs need to be exported (out of a list).
  • The export should be packaged (perhaps as a zip file).
  • When importing, it should be possible to view a list of the XMLs going to be imported and decide whether to append or overwrite existing options.

Thanks

I'm with you - kind of.

 

But user-friendly ex- and importing XML files won't solve the real problem:

The lack of central management tools for attributes, files, standards, projects, whatever...

 

I'm totally with you,

 

but as it might need decades to be achieved, it seems to me much easyer to get this option ... if Graphisoft get's inspired at some point.
