Migrate from ARCHICAD 12 and earlier.
Note the following, additional Library-related changes when migrating projects from ARCHICAD 12 and earlier:
•Active Libraries - Linked Libraries
The active libraries of older-version projects will be loaded in ARCHICAD 22 as linked libraries. (They will be listed in the Linked Libraries folder of the Library Manager.)
•Other Objects - Embedded Objects
“Other Objects” items in the older ARCHICAD projects will appear in the “Embedded Objects” folder of ARCHICAD 22.
•Other Objects in Hotlinked Modules
If you place a hotlinked module from ARCHICAD 12, any objects placed from the source file’s “Other Objects” folder will be missing in ARCHICAD 22. The solution is to embed these objects in your host ARCHICAD 22 project, using Library Manager, or to place those objects in a library on the BIMcloud, and add that library to the project.
•Missing Libraries - Unavailable Libraries
Any library “missing” in the Library Manager of the older version will be listed as “unavailable” in the Library Manager of ARCHICAD 22. Locate these libraries and add them as linked libraries, using the Library Manager’s “Add” command.
•Missing Objects
Missing objects in the older-version project are also listed as “missing” in ARCHICAD 22, both in the Library Manager as well as the Library Loading Report. To solve the problem, locate the source files of these missing objects and add them to the project, using Library Manager.
These files reference unsupported image formats.
See Image Files in the Embedded Library at Images from QuickTime Formats.
