The downloaded installer will install two extensions at once: an Archicad Add-on and a Grasshopper plug-in. These two will communicate creating the connection between the two design software. For reporting errors or sending feedback, please use our Archicad-Rhinoceros-Grasshopper Connection Beta site.
Grasshopper-Archicad Live Connection will not update automatically with an Archicad update.
Important Note: Please be informed that Rhino 6 is not yet supported.

- A tolerance was missing from Planarity.
- The icon name within the Rhino-Archicad ribbon context menu was missing.
- Crashed when a Wall placed on a locked layer in Grasshopper was double clicked upon in Archicad.
- Generating components outputted data, even when the component was yellow with “Failed to collect data…”
- If multiple valid elements were selected in AC, the “Set one X” command on parameter nodes transferred all elements, instead of just one.

- Elevation information coming from Archicad converted incorrectly to Rhino-Grasshopper.
- CW:there was no warning about invalid domain value.
- Curve input of Fill component did not accept rectangles and circles.
- Value was not cleared when referenced AC geometry was deleted.
- Output of Polyline Component had the wrong short name.
- Shell feedback was wrong (different as in Archicad).
- If the vertical position of a parent wall was modified its existing doors and windows remained in the original position.
