    Hi Eric, firstly I would like to say thank you for the free training courses you have provided.I am a bricklayer by trade and have recently completed my cert 4 in project management and have also partnered into a moulder building company. One of the things I like about my new venture is the in house plans we provide, so this is why I got the archicad program. have been using it for 4 days now and with out your videos I would be lost. I am really learning alot from your tutorials so cheers mate.

    I figured out a way to show top of wall labels on foundation plans without manually entering them. I know this question gets asked a lot on other forms. It entails creating a top down 3D document view. Using the dimension tool (ridge line setting, triangle pointing down at line) Then you explode those elements and paste them into the 2D foundation plan view. Changed my life.

    This Quickstart Tutorial Guide (along with those on Mr. Bobrow's website) is exponentially better than the Graphisoft tutorials. Mr. Bobrow does a terrific job explaining the software and putting it through its paces via practical demonstration. The pace is ideal for a beginner, and he often demonstrates how to accomplish a task on both the US and International versions of the software. This is by far the best beginner's guide to Archicad that I have managed to find on KZread or anywhere else.That said, the tutorial IS outdated. While many say "There isn't that much difference between versions 15 (the version used throughout most of this tutorial) and 20 (the current version as of this writing), I disagree emphatically. The discrepancies between the libraries (and parts) alone makes it very difficult to emulate many of these lessons, regardless of whether you're using the International or US version of Archicad 20. Additionally, the behavior of the Navigator is very different in version 20 than in 15 (discrepancies in file tree structure, default settings and feature toggles, nomenclature, etc.). I found myself having to pause the videos numerous times just to try to find the correct parameters inside virtually all of the tool settings in order to follow along and make the correct changes, because they are simply not in the same places as they are in these tutorials. Modules 6 and 7 in the Quickstart Tutorial Series were extremely challenging due to actions in the project map not cloning to the view map automatically. Had I not had the assistance of a local professional CAD designer who uses Archicad everyday, I would have never made it through the Quickstart Tutorial Series simply because of the differences in versions 15 and 20, because 100% of my issues stemmed from those discrepancies and inconsistencies.Again, this is a phenomenal tutorial series, and it's almost certainly the best one out there, but it definitely needs to be updated.
