Hello everyone,
can I import for example a number of column into grasshopper to use then and use their information to great another object as slab.
thanks

Yes, it is possible.
Make sure you have the latest update installed for both ARCHICAD and the Grasshopper-ARCHICAD Connection.
Then you will see there are "Deconstruct" Component in the ARCHICAD Toolbar in Grasshopper. You can use these ARCHICAD Deconstruct Components to obtain the geometry (surfaces) of those Column and use that for the creation of those Slabs from Grasshopper.

Hi there!

I want to extract window hieght and width from archicad. And I don't see how this is possible. More importantly I would like to be able to separate the BREPs of the window element in GH by MATERIAL.
Finally one more thing.. Does anyone know if it is possible to "SET WINDOW IN ARCHICAD" using HUMAN UI, and how would this be done? I'm no good in python so not sure how else to do this. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks
