Nemetschek pointed me in the right direction by suggesting use of the "Export Vectorscript" function. If you create a new file and perform a series of tasks using the various tools and then use the Export Vectorscript function, Vectorworks will create an external file that lists all of the Vectorscript functions that were used to generate that series of tasks.

I am new to doing Vectorscripts and am wondering where the legal values for the various object properties are listed? I found the object property selector constants in the appendix but cannot find the actual values for each property. An example of this would be what value do you use to set the scale for a viewport object? I understand it is a REAL value but am not sure what the corresponding REAL value is for a scale such as 1:48? Thanks

I actually found a work-around for it that appears to work. If when I create the tall wall (the one at the 45 degree angle) I add a very small 45 degree corner wall segment at the end of it, this then gives me my perpendicular wall joint to the shorter wall. Not sure why I didn't think of this before, but as I said I am fairly new to this. However, I think Nemetschek needs to think about giving more flexibility to adjusting wall join angles to make this a simpler task. I did have to go back and recreate both walls to get this to work the way I wanted. I had six windows which I had to re-insert. Thanks again for your suggestions.

Thanks for your help. I have tried your suggestions and have at least gotten variations on the angle of the wall join mitre, but still have not been able to get the angle that I want. Guess I will keep trying.

Hi, I am new to the Community Board as this is my first post. I have been using Vectorworks 2009 for about 6 months and, of course am still learning. I am currently working on a project as an exercise to get to know Vectorworks better and am having a problem trying to determine how to control a wall join. I have two walls of different heights joining together on a 45 degree angle and cannot figure out how to control the wall join. I would like the wall join to be at a 90 degree angle to the shorter wall, but it always creates at a 90 degree angle to the other wall. How can I control this? Thanks.
