- Favorites in Archicad are critical to improved speed and consistency. They are the magic ingredient of a good template and key to a powerful workflow. In this video I don't do much that could be considered design. That's the point. I'm using my template, work environment, and Favorites to make creation easy. Think of this as sketching in Archicad.
One big item I forgot to mention in the video is how to switch between Objects (say in the Window Tool or Object Tool) and not lose all your Favorite's settings. I cover this in my old video on Parameter Transfer: • ArchiCAD Tutorial #40:...
The video goes into more detail, but on a Mac you hold down Option + Command before clicking on a different Object in the Selection Settings. On a PC it'll be the same, but a slightly different keyboard shortcut. If that doesn't make sense, watch the other video in the link above.

As always the template and work environment are free; a good Archicad template (and work environment) is too important to horde. If you want to click the PayPal button on the template or work environment pages to support my endeavors and encourage future development, that's wonderful. Whenever people do that, it makes my day.
Great to see another Shoegnome tutorial! Favourites+a well setup template are invaluable!
Thanks! I don't know how people work without a good template and robust favorites in Archicad.
Another great tutorial Jared! Thanks for sharing the use of Favorites! Definitely like some of your custom short keys there too...
Thanks! I want Graphisoft to adopt my keyboard shortcuts as the new standard.
This video is EXACTLY what I needed to see. Watching you use your template is extremely helpful. I learned at least 10 new shortcuts and tools. Watched it twice and likely will again. Thank you for making it, Jared.
Love it. This is exactly why I did the video. So thrilled it was helpful.
It's amazing how much favorites can speed up your workflow! Thanks for posting this video. Extremely helpful as always.
Glad you found it helpful. Yeah Favorites as standards or strong starting points save SO much time.
Hi, I wanted to let you know that this video is very useful for me. As a young architect's graduate who worked in a residential firm and got complained about my software skill I find this video really open the door for me again to step into architecture industry. I have lost hope recently and quit that job because it is really dramatise me. I wanted you to know that your video is amazing. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for sharing. Don't give up. There are a lot of toxic people and firms out there. And plenty of good firms that just are a bad fit. You'll find a good place to work.
Comment for the algo boost. :-P Thanks for the great vids.
Thank you. Me and my robot overlords appreciate the engagement!
Thank You!
Glad you enjoyed the video.
Thanks!
You are the best. Thank you!

All the favorites are in the Template. So download that and you'll have access to everything. www.shoegnome.com/template/
