This page provides information on how to start and manage live updates in Enscape for Archicad.


## **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.

The Live Updates function is also available whilst VR mode is activated. This allows making adjustments to a project. When implemented, Live Updates 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 instructions:


## **Synchronize Views in Archicad**

---

The Synchronize Views functionality allows synchronizing the view between Archicad and Enscape. Any perspective/movement changes that are executed in Archicad are immediately translated into Enscape.

This functionality also allows navigation via Archicad only, without having to make use of Enscape’s controls.
