macOS High Sierra (X 10.13) Compatibility with Vectorworks Versions 2018 and 2017
With the release of macOS High Sierra on Sept. 25, we are working to resolve a few compatibility issues with the most recent versions of Vectorworks. Here’s what you need to know.
Vectorworks 2018
Vectorworks 2018 runs relatively normally on macOS High Sierra, but we recommend that you wait until Service Pack 1 is released before upgrading your Mac operating system. Updating to Vectorworks 2018 Service Pack 1 is recommended for best compatibility, as we have made several fixes. A few issues remain after the Service Pack 1 update.
