GDL Handbook News

Following the GDL Handbook launch in March, the ArchiCAD-Talk forum Libraries / LibraryParts / GDL has been flooded with questions and comments. Many of the questions have come from people who are working through the book, and need a little extra help to understand a point here and there.

We’re delighted that people are using the GDL Handbook to learn GDL programming techniques. This has always been the aim, to provide a learning resource that doubles as an on-going reference.

For anyone who wants to more discuss aspects of the book that don’t naturally fit into the ArchiCAD-Talk forum, we’ve opened a new forum on the CadimageTools website. This forum is dedicated to the GDL Handbook, so you can start a new topic on just about any related topic – from creating parameters to curve approximation and texture mapping. We’ll also let you know about new resources (examples, sub-routines and .pdf documents) that can be downloaded to help you as you work through the book.

To use the forum, just log onto the CadimageTools website and browse to Resources > Forums > GDL Handbook.
