GSQuickLook
GSQuickLook is a QuickLook generator plugin for macOS that enables quick preview of Graphisoft ArchiCAD project files (.pln, .archicad, and related formats) directly in Finder and other system applications. It allows architects, designers, and project managers to view ArchiCAD documents in the macOS QuickLook preview panel without needing to launch the full ArchiCAD application. This plugin integrates into the system-wide QuickLook framework to provide seamless file preview functionality.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionGSQuickLook is a system QuickLook generator plugin and is not a standalone application—it is installed as part of the Graphisoft ArchiCAD package and is updated whenever ArchiCAD itself is updated. There is no separate installer or update channel for this plugin. To ensure GSQuickLook supports Apple Silicon Macs natively, you must update ArchiCAD to the latest version through Graphisoft's own download and update mechanisms (either the ArchiCAD installer from graphisoft.com or the built-in ArchiCAD auto-updater). Once ArchiCAD is on a current native build, the QuickLook generator will automatically work natively as well. If you are running an older version of ArchiCAD, check graphisoft.com to confirm that your version ships a native Apple Silicon build before September 2028, when Apple removes Rosetta 2 support entirely.
