One of the easiest ways to save time and increase productivity in ARCHICAD is to make use of the context sensitive right-click menu options.

One example that can be significantly quicker than previous version workflow is to select a composite wall / slab / roof then right-click the mouse and choose Edit Selected Composite... as shown below:

When the Composites dialog opens, it will even show you the selected Composite settings.  In the ‘old days’ you would likely go to Options> Element Attributes> Composites and then have to find the composite you want to edit.  This new workflow is much quicker!

If the selection is a Complex Profile, the command will change to Edit Selected Complex Profile…

"Chris Clark with BIM6x, and his whole office always have your back. Whether I’ve lost my key before a big presentation (they got me a replacement the next morning!) or when I’ve had technical or installation questions they put you to the top of the list. We’ve been working with BIM6x for over ten years now, and there isn’t one instance where I haven’t been a priority with his team. Formation Architecture has a valuable teammate in BIM6x".

Archicad has been the primary software in my architectural practice for over a decade. I am continuously impressed by the powerful solution Archicad offers for the design process from early design through construction. I love that I never need to “dumb-down” my virtual designs at any point along the way! The power of the virtual model is incredible through every stage of the project and it is especially helpful for many clients who otherwise struggle with visualization of their project.
