Grouping Revisions by Release
Posted by Glen on March 9th, 2009 filed in ArchiCAD 12, Revision Manager, Tip of the WeekArchiCAD 12 Revision Manager allows you to group revisions by Release.
- Open the Revision Manager Dialog with the Cadimage - Revision Manager - Revision Manager… menu and click on the Edit Issue Button.
- Check the Group Revisions by Release check box.
- Then close the Drawing Issue Dialog by clicking the Update Issue Button

Here’s an example:
Four revisions have been done to this layout before it is transmitted. Then another three revisions are done before it is transmitted again.

With Group Revisions switched off all of the revisions are listed independently. But with grouping on, the first 4 revisions are all included as A which is transmitted, then the next 3 are grouped as B.
This way each transmittal of this sheet gets a separate Revision ID.

Custom Revision Clouds
Posted by Josh on March 2nd, 2009 filed in ArchiCAD 11, ArchiCAD 12, Revision Manager, Tip of the WeekWhen you change the cloud shape to a custom cloud, you get a bunch of adjustable hotspots. The number and position of the hotspots depends on the original shape of the cloud.
If you started with a rectangular cloud, you’ll get 4 editable edges.

If you started with an L-shape cloud, you’ll get 6 editable edges.

The exception to the rule is the elliptical cloud shape. If you choose an elliptical cloud, then change directly to a custom cloud shape, a large number of editable edges is generated.

Normally this number will be more than you need, so first change the cloud to a rectangular shape. Then when you change the cloud to a custom shape it will have only 4 editable edges.

Posted by Campbell on November 20th, 2008 filed in 3D Profiler, ArchiCAD 12, Company News, Key Notes, Landscaping Tools, Product News, Revision Manager, Stair BuilderCadimage Tools ist stolz bekanntzugeben, dass von heute an fünf der Cadimage Tools als örtliche deutschsprachige Versionen verfügbar sind.
Die folgenden ArchiCAD 12 Tools sind heute herausgegeben und sind ab sofort zum Kauf und Download erhältlich:
- 3D Profiler
- Key Notes
- Landscaping Tool
- Revision Manager
- Stair Builder
In Verbindung mit der Veröffentlichung, wurde die Cadimage Tools Webseite komplett überholt und ist nun auch als örtliche Webseite auf Deutsch vorhanden.
Das Übersetzen, Entwickeln und Instandhalten der Tools in mehrfachen Sprachen stellt das Entwicklerteam vor zusätzliche Herausforderungen. Wir sind jedoch der Auffassung, dass die Vorteile regionaler Versionen diese internen Herausforderungen bei weitem überwiegen.
Zu diesem Zeitpunkt wird unser Online Support noch auf Englisch angeboten. Wir werden allerdings die Nachfrage unserer deutschsprachigen Kunden beobachten und ständig unser Hilfsangebot überprüfen.
Wir werden mit ortsansässigen Graphisoft Partnern in Deutschland, Österreich und der Schweiz zusammenarbeiten, um diesen grossartigen Anlass zu fördern.

German Cadimage Tools Released!
Posted by Campbell on November 20th, 2008 filed in 3D Profiler, ArchiCAD 12, Company News, Key Notes, Landscaping Tools, Product News, Revision Manager, Stair BuilderCadimage Tools is proud to announce that from today five of the Cadimage Tools are available as localised German language versions.
The following ArchiCAD 12 Tools have all been released today available for immediate purchase and download:
- 3D Profiler
- Key Notes
- Landscaping Tool
- Revision Manager
- Stair Builder
In conjunction with this release, the Cadimage Tools website has been completely overhauled and is also available as a localised website in German.
Translating, developing and maintaining Tools in multiple languages provides additional challenges to the development team but we believe the benefits of having local versions far outweigh these internal challenges.
At this stage our Online Support is still provided in English, however, we will monitor the demand from our German speaking customers and continually review our support offering.
We will be working with local Graphisoft Partners in Germany, Austria and Switzerland to promote this great occasion.
