Image Fills for Presentation Drawings
Tips and Tricks • Michael Warr • 10 July 2019
AEC - Tip of the Day, Archicad
Did you know about ARCHICAD’s ability to use images as fills?
It’s easy!
Click Options>Element Attributes>Fills
Click New and choose ‘Image Fill’ from the options.
Next, click ‘Load Image’ and find an appropriate image from the loaded libraries and catalogs.
Tip: Once loaded, you may want to adjust the fill size. I’ve also set this fill to be used as a Drafting Fill but it could be used as a Cover Fill and linked to the top surface of a slab.
Once loaded, use the Fill Tool on Drafting Fill mode to draw the fills into your building.
Happy Modelling!
