Live Updates and Synchronize Views

Live Updates in ArchiCAD

When making changes to materials, lights, objects, etc. via Archicad, these adjustments are instantly recognized and automatically translated into Enscape when Live Updates is enabled. This functionality can of course also be deactivated when required.

Live Updates is also available whilst VR mode is activated. This allows making adjustments to a project which, when implemented, allows the user who is wearing the VR headset to see the corresponding changes in real time. Furthermore, Live Updates are always activated by default. To deactivate this feature, please follow the corresponding instructions set out below.
