This 110 minute ArchiCAD training video (recorded during a live webinar February 27, 2014) provides a thorough explanation and demonstration of the new features and changes introduced in MasterTemplate 17. The template was rebuilt this year from the standard Graphisoft templates (starting from the USA version or INT version of ArchiCAD). It closely resembles previous versions, while incorporating the new system of Building Materials and many other enhancements and tweaks.
