Re: A general question of an architect...

It's more or less like this: The full BIM tools that allow to build stuff from scratch 100% in freecad were long to evolve, so at the beginning it was indeed more convenient to import stuff and buld on it.

Re: Shortcuts and customization...

That's funny. The free version of Sketchup is little more than a toy for creating eye candy. Saying FreeCAD is incapable of ANY real work is quite insulting. :? Well, I should say so...(.
