The Navigator: This is your command center. Use the Project Map for raw views and the View Map for saved drawings with specific scales and layer combinations.
Favor Composites: Instead of drawing multiple thin walls, create a Composite Structure (e.g., Brick + Insulation + Stud) for faster modeling.
ArchiCAD 26 introduced significant improvements in design, documentation, and collaboration. Unlike traditional CAD software that focuses on 2D lines, ArchiCAD operates on a 3D model-based approach. Every wall, window, or slab you place contains data that automatically generates floor plans, elevations, and schedules. Setting Up Your Workspace
