@Stephan Moenninghoff Is this the expected behavior for T02487? I can't remember if it's always behaved this way or if I only started noticing it recently.

It seems that the new Object Visibility commands can only affect currently editable geometry, so if your Layers are set to anything other than Show/Snap/Modify, it'll only hide the others things on your current Design Layer. Objects on other Layers will remain visible. I wouldn't say this is how I expected it to work, but so be it. I usually leave my Layer settings on Show/Snap/Modify so it doesn't bother me as much.

It seems that somehow the combination of using scaled symbols containing 2D geometry in 3D space, where the contents within the Symbol are Grouped.... might be causing the issue. If you go inside your "2F cornice 1" symbol and ungroup the geometry, it seems to fix it. Not sure why it's behaving that way in the first place... (Note also that the Symbols still exist where they ought to be, but are only selectable in Wireframe and not Shaded)

Paolo to the rescue again! Needed catenary curves and this tool does it perfectly.

Correct. (And because I don't think it's been said explicitly in this thread, this functionality was added in VW2025). Object Level Visibility was probably the biggest workflow gamechanger for me in this year's version, and adding keyboard shortcuts can be a huge timesaver. It also allows you to put the commands into muscle memory, which might be more efficient than activating the part of your brain that needs to interpret a chain of words like "Show Selected Objects Only." The menu items always trip me up momentarily. Here are the shortcuts I added, but you can customize as you see fit by going to Tools > Workspaces > Edit Current Workspace. Hide Selected Objects: Cmd+Opt+Shift+minus (because it subtracts them from view) Unhide Objects: Cmd+Opt+Shift+plus (because it adds things back to the view) Show Selected Objects Only [Isolate]: Cmd+Opt+Shift+zero (just made sense because it's near the other two keys, and zero somehow connects with isolate in my brain) For Windows of course it's Ctrl+Alt+Shift but you get the idea. Good Luck!

No changes that I know of. But hopefully this is on the radar of @Stephan Moenninghoff who might be the best person to enact meaningful change in this realm.

Under Settings < Attributes you could put the "Cabinet Edge" geometry on a class that you turn off:

Interesting. I've always wondered if there's a graphical way to indicate "drawer" in an elevation and this is the first example I've seen. (I'd probably adapt it to use the long-short Line Type I used for hinge markers on doors).

Thank you again for writing this script a few years ago. I'm glad others have found it useful as well 🙂 One small request next time you touch it: it'd be great if the pop-ups that appear when you turn Presentation Mode on or off were changed to instead be non-blocking messages that appear in green in the status bar in the lower right part of the screen (if that's possible to do).

Bumpity bump 🙃 VE-104236

“Perimeter” mapping type used to accomplish this but they removed it as an option a few versions ago and I’ve been loudly complaining ever since. It’s the only way this was possible.

While specific to Twinmotion's functionality, that software's "Statistic" window is pretty nifty:

This happens to me occasionally too, including just two days ago. For me, I believe it happens when I hit undo, but instead of undoing one step it undoes the entire undo history (30 steps for me), or perhaps to some other earlier point in time – not sure the exact logic. There is no Redo available, so when it happens you're kind out of luck for whatever you just lost. It seems like it happens when Vectorworks is "tired" and has been open for a while.

Could a command be added to VCS that could add the requisite metadata to 3rd party panoramas?

In the US they both say "Trim." Odd that they don't both say "Architrave" for you.
