ArchiCAD just sounds like a snobbier (or more obscure) version of AutoCAD. But while I’m happy to drive a second-hand Jap-car to roll into work, I hate waiting for a Joe-average model to even open on my computer when using Revit. Revit is better, even if people often mispronounce it. Hell, even Vectorworks rolls better of the tongue.

If we''re going to produce a drawing we''ll need one unless we''ve arrived at the day when a model is the only deliverable which, unless I''ve become Rip van Winkle and woke up twenty odd years in the future, isn''t the norm yet. A polyline is often used for this in AutoCAD. One recurring theme is a thick boundary line.

The thread at RFO also asks about the 20 mile threshold Revit has regarding model size and warning us about model accuracy. They want us to keep the model as close to the file's mathematical origin as possible.
