ArchiCad #2

ArchiCad is one serious smart software.
This video above features a nice plugin for creating stairs? It seems it is a combination of sketchup and autocad into one. But there is some steep learning to be done.
I think it must have been an architect or engineer that thought, you know what i am tired of all these late nights and endless drafting.

The attributes of all the elements like staircase and even furniture. Being able to choose distance apart and then adding them onto plan. In which it will appear into all the drawing types. In fact it is exactly like how revit is, i am almost amazed at mine own amazement. Like i know this is how revit works too but somehow, i seem more surprise now? Is it from knowing how much time it can save me; from the numerous late nights, or is it that it is just a more beautiful interface.

Lynda online learning is also a God-sent in this 21st century. amazing amazing.
In the series of videos, the bite-size lengths of the video really helps in digesting it, even though i do fall asleep sometimes. The last bit, publishing to phone/ tablet is really cool. Especially as in the printscreen, where the section transform onto the model cut away to merge the two.

Can't wait to get started on this software!
