Why do they bury it so deep! I’d been under the impression that there had been no further development of the SketchUP (SU) import plugin since AC9. Ok, it’s still not available for the Mac (neither PPC nor MacTel) but the Windows version is available so why not let people know?

ArchiCAD for AutoCAD users
For AutoCAD users who are struggling to come to terms with the shortcuts in ArchiCAD (AC), here is a handy conversion guide compiled by Architect Geoffroy Magnan. What I liked most was one simple sentence telling me how to back up my AC preferences; that and the section on Library Management.

ArchiCAD 10 – finally
The AC-10 Splash Screen
I’ve been waiting for version 10 even since it was released worldwide but for one reason or another, Adroitec delayed the delivery. What surprised me most was the splash screen and what continues to surprise me is that the wonderful Amyuni PDF converter included in the package isn’t installed by default. It’s the best PDF software that I’ve ever come across.
Huge Pack of Seamless Textures
This is a single archive containing about 2000 seamless jpeg textures. It contains the usual suspects – brick, wood, parquet, concrete, tile – as well as some unusual ones like crates, frontages, trim and ornamental details. You can have a look at the thumbnail pages before deciding if this huge collection is for you.
