Publish or save the correctly resized and scaled Drawings to dwg or dxf formats.

Place all the plans you would like to create Sketch about on Layouts. Hint: draw a rectangle around the extent of your project - this will come in very handy later when resizing the object to your floor plan! Step 2

Several steps are needed to achieve this, but here is how to do it:įirst of all, you have to adjust the layers in your plan so that you only see the lines that you want to see later in 3D. Some additional data need to be taken into consideration to achieve a correct result.īasically what we need is to have an ARCHICAD Library Object at the end which contains 2D lines in its 2D View and real 3D lines in its 3D View. The Tech Tip July 2002 winner, BertNijs, from Belgium found a way to show Floor Plans in the 3D Window inspired Karl Ottenstein to find a way to create a sketchy look of 2D drawings of ARCHICAD (Floor Plans, Section-Elevation Windows etc.) The idea came after a user wanted to be able to achieve results similar to those created by the Sketch Rendering Engine of ARCHICAD on the Floor Plan.
