When using archicad lights, we often use the built-in text of the 2D symbol to show a light type, which is on the luminaires schedule. I would like to see a checkbox added to the 2D appearance UI to allow that text to be taken from the light's elemen...

This is a relatively simple one. I am constantly selecting elevation and section markers by mistake when working in the floor plan, because they all have hotlines at the cut line, and also at the near and far clip lines. My wish would be for these ho...

Having the option to use custom components such as door panels, knobs, curtain wall panels, window sashes, etc is quite useful and a great way to customize a library part. This feature would be even more useful if the GS library objects were designed...

As noted in the title, if you create a new GDL object, check 'save as subtype', create another object that uses this subtype to inherit a set of parameters, and then make any changes to top-level object, any objects that use that subtype immediately ...

As far as I understand, the Archicad-Grasshopper live connection add-in is communicating with Rhino over a TCP connection over port 19723, (by default). I'm curious if anyone knows any details of exactly what format the message is in. My guess is tha...

In a schedule, I would imagine that you'd have the option to pick which field of the table record should be displayed, similar to how classifications can be displayed by Id, name, or description

This is a really well-explained proposal, and I can think of many applications - luminaires, furniture, millwork, storage systems, really anything which can be fully described in the specifications and just needs a symbol on plans to show its locatio...

Yes! We don't always use slabs as floor slabs, or beams as literal beams - so there shouldn't be so many imposed restrictions on visibility across stories. There are other areas where the tools are inconsistent - beams for example can't display cover...

I agree with this! One way to implement this would be that every object records its associated favorite as a built-in parameter value, which you could use as a selection filter. But selection filters don't always catch everything depending on view se...

I ran into the same problem, don't think it can be done. I use the projected display under the curtain wall's Floor Plan and Section settings, and code the custom panel to show a different model when GLOB_VIEW_TYPE = 2 (plan view).

Light objects should show element ID, and be more flexible.

Make elevation/section marker hotlines optional

More parameters for custom components

Bug: Updating parameters of an object saved as a subtype breaks objects using that subtype

JSON schema for Rhino-Grasshopper connection add-on?
