When you start drawing a Wall, for example, you can activate the Measure tool on the fly, measure (or even edit) a value with the fields it displays and then hit Enter to transfer this value into the appropriate field of the Tracker. You can also use the Measure tool while creating elements. Graphisoft ID is your gateway to a great personal experience with all of the products and services we offer, including Archicad, BIMx, BIMcloud, Learn, Community, and Forward.

The image below shows the Measure tool feedback after three clicks, as you approach the last corner of the rectangular wall. After two or more clicks, the Tracker also shows a cumulative distance and the area (shown by a temporary gray area on screen). You can Measure any number of segments in sequence: each click represents a new starting-point from which the next distance will be measured. The Tracker displays the horizontal, vertical and radial distance measured from the starting point, as well as the angle. Click on a starting point (the top left corner of the rectangular wall, in the image below) and start to trace the wall. To use the Measure Tool, activate its icon in the Standard Toolbar, or use the M shortcut. By modeling your design in Lumion’s breathtaking environments, you can always see how your choices will impact the final result. It is a temporary, on-screen function for quick feedback. Real-time rendering with LiveSync Lumion LiveSync for ArchiCAD is the free real-time rendering plugin that seamlessly connects your ArchiCAD and Lumion projects. The Measure tool, located in the Standard toolbar, allows you to measure distances and areas in the project.
