@Tom W., See the video attached - I don't seem to have the same issue. Hardscape JPO.mp4

Now in a new blank file with an unstyled Hardscape I am unable to assign a pen to the Joint Pattern Overlay part, either by object or by class. The only thing that displays is the fill. The only pen I am seeing is the pen from the Base Fill part. However in @Jonk's file yesterday I was able to assign a pen to the JPO part. So I am just thoroughly confused as to what you are meant to be able to do + what you aren't meant to be able to do. It would make a lot of sense for the JPO part to be fill-only but then why give the pen options in the Attributes list browser? And if we are meant to be able to assign a pen to the JPO part then why isn't it working? It's hard to know whether to file a bug or not because I don't know what the intended behaviour is. I have had a quick look at Help + it doesn't say anything about the JPO part being fill-only.

I should mention this issue is specifically with ConnectCAD items such as Circuits.

Hello, I imported a PDF drawing into Vectorworks and created the rigging plan by placing trusses on top of it. While working, the PDF repeatedly appears and disappears on the screen. Could you advise how to resolve this issue? Vectorworks Design Suite 2025 - [무신사도면.vwx] 2026-02-14 17-12-49.mp4 Thank you.

I'm having an issue with my file where I have installed extra fonts to my windows machine and have used them elsewhere in the file but now every piece of text seems to default and lock itself to this font. I've checked classes which are all un-styled. I've checked font mappings, there are none. Any help would be great as this is driving me a little insane. Thank you!

Hmm not sure if there are any other options - other than continuing to press for Data Vis in Graphic Legends...

This time i did wonder if i should just do a Pat Stanford + add the instructions to my signature 🙂

I far as I can tell, this has been fixed in the 3.1 update.

@Tom W. I would have never figured that out myself. Thanks!

Thank you ! I have the same results: when asking for thumbnails, the fill colors appear but there are multiple items so this is unacceptable for a concise review. when asking for 2D attributes, the cell fill is grey and not reflecting the colors.

@Tom W. You should be on the VW payroll given how many times you've answered VW2026 wall questions.

I'm having the same issue after switching to VW2026. File working file in 2025, but now I can't select objects in top/plan wireframe mode, only if I activate 'shaded'. Did you ever find a solution @bicameral2?

Hello Jovan, I am in the US. Is there any chance you'd be willing to sell for £1,100 + VAT?

These are three Hardscapes with a Data Vis applied which colours them by Hardscape Category + a Database Report that uses ImageByDataVis in the first column: But the cells are displaying thumbnails of the Hardscape objects themselves so won't look the same with 'normal' shaped Hardscapes. The DV didn't apply when I tried the '2D Attributes' display option. It's not a function I think I've used before.

I of any use I have checked the shortcuts after the reinstall and they all refer to Original 74.2.

@Sebastiano B.Excellent! I tested the update from VW2026 sp2 to sp3 and all of the PDF items in the package were present and correct. I'm not sure why those shortcuts were missing from yours.

Sorry but I have now deleted the V2026 app and reinstall. All working now. Tx

Mac or PC? Might be a long shot, but… Is the publish pdf option set to rasterize?

@Tom W. I tried the mageByDataVis function in the worksheet, but it returns N/A

I am on update 3. For reference I've included a screenshot of the PDF. Thank you!

Can you post a file with your object and rail so we can take a look?

I think the best approach could be do a rotated cabinet and you can cover it with a countertop

A Data Vis legend is literally just a legend of the Data Vis colours so no you can't do anything like that with it. This would be more suited to a Graphic Legend but unfortunately I don't believe you can use Data Vis on a GL (yet - despite many calls for it). So another option would be to use the ImageByDataVis function in the Worksheet...?

Having trouble with the loft surface single rail function. I got the "Rail does not intersect" error a couple times and after ensuring all points intersect now I have the "Loft Surface or Solid could not be created" Error and have no clue what the error means. I have looked through other forum posts as well as the tutorial videos and cannot find what I have done wrong
