Modeling freedom

• Slanted elements - All walls, beams and columns can be set to any desired angle, giving you greater modeling freedom
• Cross-section profiles - Custom cross-section profiles for columns, beams and walls, can broaden your design possibilities
• Priority-based walls intersection - With priority value assigned to each component, you can control how composite walls intersect and automatically get correct plan drawings
• Reshaping elements in any View - Basic editing commands are now available in all views, so you can reshape even complex elements in the appropriate view

The great benefit of Archicad 10's modeling freedom is speed, fewer errors and an easy approach to making design alterations.

"Archicad 10 is like a Beethoven symphony played with an orchestra where every section is in time and in tune." Henk van de Wilde (De Wilde Architecten), Holland

Integrated workflow

• Integrated layouting - PlotMaker layouting functions are now available in Archicad. New features further enhance the documentation process.
• Extended drag & drop - Move navigator items, create views and place them on layouts, create publisher and merge layouts – simply by drag & drop
• Smart drawing management - Drawing Manager monitors all drawings within a project. A new checking mechanism speeds up the update process significantly
• Parametric drawing titles - Parametric titles are adjusted automatically to associated drawings - indicating specific data. This makes editing much more flexible

Archicad 10 eliminates the unnecessary steps needed to export and import a project simply to create the layouting. The streamlined process results in a hugely faster update between the model and the drawings.

"Archicad 10 will improve our profitability,
will speed up our work and optimise our workflow."
Robert Müller, (Grassinger Architects), Germany

Interaction

• Pre-selection feedback - With this new feature, you'll know what will be selected in advance, and will receive immediate feedback about that element
• Intelligent guide-lines - "Typical" guide-lines will appear when you pause the mouse over an element, "guessing" your intentions in advance
• In-place numeric input - Numeric input will be at hand with every graphical operation. The tracker follows the cursor providing up-to-date information
• Gradient fills - Linear & radial gradient fills will help you achieve a higher level of graphic quality and create better representations of your design

In Archicad 10, we've put great value on immediate, easy usage and a very smooth learning curve. New users can immediately start working and have fun while modeling.

"Archicad 10 is a well engineered
and thorough product which is
not only comprehensive, but inspires confidence
and delivers great enjoyment."
Matthew Norris (One 17 AD), UK
