    I don't really like giving layers elevations, because I like to be able to paste-in-place between different building storeys

    EXACTLY! I do this a lot.  I paste to another layer only to have it move on me because I set elevations to the layers.  I stopped doing that.

  2. @EAlexander Thanks, anyone have a comment about the "no more versions for VW" or did I imagine that?

     

    Also, my above comment about the other firm not being a power user of VW was not clear. 

    I'm running VW2024 and they are running VW2023.  Granted not a big leap but the improvements in speed to the rendering of sections are not something to ignore. 

  3. Hello all,  I thought I heard some time ago that VW was getting away from versions.  Not sure how that would happen but I am currently going to be taking on a big project with another firm as the "heavy lifter".  Currently I'm running VW2024 to take advantage of the (see below) the other firm is not really a VW power user so we are at this road block of what version to use over the next year.

     

    So I guess it is really my problem but the whole version schema needs to go.

  4. So without going thru every font...how can I find a font that is similar to this in VW?

    I want my lower case "l" not to look like a "I" a capital "I" and so forth.

     

    Should not the font list actually show the font look without having to apply it to a text then needing to scroll down again?

  5. So in the video I would fly to a location (left hand) then grab an object (right hand) then fly to another location (left hand) but still holding on to the object with right hand...

     

    Again I keep coming back to a cloud based universe where everyone on the team can fly around (first person) and assemble things...Architectural, Structural, Mechanical, Civil all in the same spot...(each discipline would naturally be able to lock their stuff so no one in Architectural can change Structural for instance) currently its all a big import/export mess.

    get design information out of you by talking.

    it the context of you already have the job but people want to change stuff and are happy to make the changes by way of email...as in "just change it like this, add some there and subtract there...no need to draw it up"  there are always hidden things that do not come out until you draw it up and place in context. 

  7. An architect I worked for used this word to define a situation where people (contractor, client, etc) tries to get design information out of you by talking.  

     

    While you insist that the situation needs to be drawn up to fully understand the situation, "architecture".
