  1. Thank you SO MUCH! That's so helpful. Glad that the Forum is still thriving. Really appreciate you taking the time to do the same file too. I have dropped the worksheet onto my overall sheet - which shows all the breakout rooms. But I also need to do individual Sheet Laters with the chair count just for each room - I guess I just need to do a separate worksheet for each Sheet layer don't I? No clever way of filtering the sheet by just the sheet layer it is on? Thanks again! Andrew
  2. Hello all. Been a few years since I posted! I wonder if someone can help. I have a large floor plan for an exhibition. I would like to automatically count the number of chairs in each room - of which there are about 40, each with different capacities. I was thinking of drawing and naming a "Space" in each room, then counting the symbols within on a worksheet - which I can do easily. But with so many rooms, I guess that means 40 worksheets. So I was wondering if I could have one worksheet, with a list of spaces in column A, then a count of my chair symbol in column B. But I can't get the formula to work to only count symbols within the specific space. I guess it should be (in plain English) "Count, where symbol is "chair-1" and space_name = Column A Any suggestions? Thanks, Andrew
  3. I am so sorry for wasting your time! I could have sworn that in 2020 - holding the spacebar and moving the mouse panned. but of course not - you need to click and hold the mouse button. That would have been crazy. I have done that for 10 years + so don't know why I suddenly thought it was different. Please ignore me. 😳😳😳😳😳 I was so convinced I even fired up 2020 to check 😳
  4. Thanks Mark That's the behaviour I am getting. I have turned off spacebar usage in the SOD preferences too... I quite liked, and am very used to, the old / back in the day style (yesterday - as you say) of the spacebar acting in boomerang mode, I think that is what it is is called. ie - hold down space bar and the mouse cursor pans, no need to go to all that extra effort of holding the left mouse button down. Not quite ready to go back to yesterday yet - still early. If I had a choice mind, given Brexit here in the UK, the virus etc 2017 feels very appealing.
  5. Smart Options Display will be really useful in 2021. But I am so used to using the spacebar to pan! I have tried re-configuring it using the § key (what is that for anyway?!) for Smart Options, but can't get the spacebar back to the old usage. Anyone know how to do it? I am on a Mac
  6. Doors anyone know if VWX 2021 is Big Sur compatible on OS X?
  7. Scrub that. Got it! Look forward to trying it out tomorrow.
  8. 😮 I don’t think I have a serial number yet.
  9. I was hoping today would be release day! Perhaps not.
  10. Hi I am afraid not - it is one of those tricky problems as it is hard to replicate. Make sure you are on the latest service pack though - that’s the first thing support will say
  11. Thanks Nice try but no. It snaps to a rectangle on a design layer but not a rectangle in a referenced viewport on a different design layer
  12. Thanks - but that didn't work! All classes are on.
  13. Hi I am having trouble snapping in the annotations space of a Sheet Layer Viewport. The two items I want to snap to are on different layers (but the same scale) I can snap to them both when in a design layer Snap to object is on Though irrelevant when in a annotation space of a sheet layer VP - Layer options are set to snap others Any other ideas? Thanks, Andrew
  14. I would make a symbol library in a separate file - then reference that into your master drawing. Reports and data records etc still work
  15. Hi For me, @PVA - Jim does some superb tutorials. Vectorworks endorsed too. Just look up the official Vectorworks YouTube channel, Are you a VSS subscriber? Good content there too. Which industry are you in? Andrew
