The content is recorded clearly. You will need to adjust your viewing of the view to HD 1080p so you can see the presentation clearly.

In several presentations and online industry calls I have been on in Australia, sadly many leaders of the industry are yet to even read this key standard.

I would like to ask you what a certifier information manager is? What qualification do they hold? Across the world I have seen many projects proclaiming to be delivered in accordance with ISO19650, with information managers engaged by the appointing party to perform the role on their behalf, and still the quality of the information requirements is sub-par! It just requires a lot of education on the opportunities to make this a really simple process. Sadly people are making it a lot more complex than it really needs to be.

Does your computer meet the minimum specified requirements that Enscape recommend? If so I would strongly recommend that you reach out to Enscape directly and seek their support with the issues you are facing.

I honestly can't remember but I use the latest version that is available at the time.

No problem 👍

Glad to hear it!

Very interesting theory. Right now the AFL are making huge inroads across the country. One would hope that that isn't the case though.

Glad you liked it.

Glad you enjoyed it!

It is a good workflow if you need to build up quantities and costs

Glad you liked it

Glad you learned something!!!

@@SkewedBIM glad you replied, if I may ask where can download the crack version of enscape

You don't@@festusmwathi5064 You pay for it.

I think that the complexity might be your issue. I would test out creating the pattern in an empty file. By testing it in a different file you can see if it is the complexity or the file itself.

No worries.

I think there is a setting in Enscape that enables that.

@@SkewedBIM I think live sync can do that

@@donifconinternatiionalltd8357 because I use a 46 inch wide screen I have never needed to have the two windows overlapping the other, so for me I haven;t really tested it.

It is a work in progress. Being volunteer driven it is taking a while to get it to cover all of the different workflows people want to access.

@@SkewedBIM sure. Maybe Graphisoft needs to review all the planned features be their priority. So that more powerful tools would be developed earlier. I haven’t seen categories in the roadmap btw.

Glad you enjoyed Enzyme’s presentation. There are a lot of different areas that people want developed further in Archicad. Over time Graphisoft will get to a lot of the wishes from the users from across the globe. It does make it harder now that there are additional disciplines added to the tool. They are working on all of the streams currently so hopefully what they release aligns with your needs.

It is a complex beast to get your head into. There really does need to be more GDL courses out there and I personally feel it needs to be simplified a bit more for the average user.

You should be able to find the Design Options Palette from the Window Menu>Palettes>Design Options If you are not able to see it in the palettes I would suggest loading the AC27 work environment. If you have loaded a work environment that you have created from a previous release then the new menu items may not appear.

There are a few you can access. Firstly there is CI Door and Window Tool here > centralinnovation.com/archicad/extensions/ci-tools-doors-windows/ Secondly there is Cadswift Infinite openings here > cadswift.com.au/product/infinite-openings/

Glad you enjoyed it.

I think the point Pat was trying to get across is that unlike traditionally scripted elements the majority came from geometry saved as an object. He then demonstrates the method of adding scripting to the object to make it more usable.

What release of Archicad and Enscape have you currently got installed?

Glad you are getting something out of it.

In the end it can be handled by layers so I don’t see it as a big failure on the tools front. I think there are other areas that need a strong focus to be honest.

It sadly takes time each release to do it but I find it is worth it. You then go through everything and check it is still relevant.

I really have to take the time to sit down and write down a list of presets that will work for my specific template and workflows. In 20 years of using the software I have been very random in my find and select usage hence not putting presets in place. But I think now should be the time.

I will have to check with Jorge on that one for you.

No problem 😊

Glad you liked it!

You're welcome!

I am sorry I can't advise you on that because I use Archicad.

I don’t see them being part of my workflows in the near future either.

It depends on the contract. I the majority of projects I have been involved in I have been the Superintendent on the project, therefore following the project all the way through to completion. So I have extensive experience working with contractors to resolve any issues that are not covered clearly in the documentation.

You're welcome!

No worries.

It is good to learn about the best ways to deliver complex projects. Blair has had to handle some pretty large complex projects in his time.

That is true. The video is from February 2020. It has been a few years since it was created.

Digital Twin as a term does have a need. I just find sadly that half of the things that are BIM uses / processes have been essentially stolen by marketing departments to make them of interest to asset owners.

I would say that if you had a model where the doors in the model opened and closed in association with the real doors in the building, then that would be a digital twin. Also, you would have to have a system in place such that when you opened the doors in the digital model, the doors in the building itself would open as well. I use "doors" here as a simplification for clarity. There are potential benefits from having a digital building model that monitored and processed live data, but not sure how far on we are with this technologically at this point in time. I doubt that it would ever be the construction model that acted this way, because the real building hasn't been built. You might have to invent a new term for a construction model that processes active data. Maybe somebody already has? Leave that with you. @@SkewedBIM

There are people who are using tracking on construction sites for materials and equipment that can be visualised on a model environment, so tech in some way does exist for this@@petermorgan7900

I believe that model managers, BIM managers, Information Managers, information coordinators, all are opportunities for role titles. At the end of the Day, I know my thoughts won’t change an industry that has made this decision to self identify. At the end of the day they are not all Engineers so it is a false title / role. I might be the only one in the world that will believe that.

@@SkewedBIM i'm generally in agreeance that DE in is a misleading and overly generic description of BIM. VDC I'm on the fence with but it doesn't usually spawn many role titled at least.

@@AussieBIMGuru it is all about trying to find a point of difference. Framing a product differently so people want to pay for it.
