STS 10 Compatibility with ArchiCAD 11
19/09/07 06:03
A note about using the STS with ArchiCAD 11:
ArchiCAD 11 brought no new features that cause changes to the template structure or use (yes, this is the first version where that has ever happened). Therefore, the STS for ArchiCAD 10 remains unchanged yet fully compatible with ArchiCAD 11. If you are an existing user of the STS migrating to ArchiCAD 11 you may simply continue using the STS as always. Just load the appropriate ArchiCAD Library that is included with ArchiCAD 11 alongside the STS library.
The templates versions will be renamed accordingly in the near future, but again there are no changes in ArchiCAD 11 that affect the templates. I will update the documentation to include the appropriate version references, etc. only.
Thanks for your continued interest in the STS for ArchiCAD!

Cleanup ArchiCAD preferences easily
31/05/06 21:12
It seems like the first recommendation by Graphisoft
tech support is to clean your preference files per
this Graphisoft technote. So,
several months ago I created a batch file for
Windows XP that will delete the preference files
automatically, plus I also added a few commands
to it that will also cleanup other Windows
temporary files. All of the PCs in my office run
this file at login so we will never have a
possibility of corrupt preference file which are
known to cause problems with ArchiCAD. I'm
making this available to everyone in the hopes
that it might be useful, but it is offered with
no warranty whatsoever. You can
download the batch file here on the Downloads page.
I'll try to make one for Mac OS X in the near future.
Below are the contents of the file just to illustrate what happens:

REM This line deletes files from the current user's default temp folder
rd /s/q "%USERPROFILE%\LOCAL SETTINGS\Temp"
REM This line deletes files from the user's ArchiCAD cache folder
rd /s /q "%USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Application Data\Graphisoft"
REM This line deletes files from the user's ArchiCAD cache folder
del /f /q "%USERPROFILE%\Application Data\Graphisoft\*.prf"
del /f /q "%USERPROFILE%\Application Data\Graphisoft\*.xml"
REM These lines delete Windows temp stuff
rd %temp% /s /q
md %temp%
rd /s /q "%USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Temp"
md "%USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Temp"
