  1. thank you so much!! it worked
  2. Hey All, I have a small 3d model of a house with few doors and windows. I am trying to put materials on it. I selected a wall in plan view and then in the OIP i changed the style to a CMU-6" Plain. When I go to 3d view and open GL, the texture/material of the wall is not showing. I tried to use the Attribute mapping tool (to scale it ?) but it isn't working, anyone knows how can I make it show? Thanks guys
  3. Thank you Michaelk, that worked!
  4. Hi all, I have this walls and doors showing on 2d design layer and in the VP. When I go to isometric view the walls show but the doors disappear, anyone has any idea of what's happening? thank you!!

    DOORS IN VP

    I fix it!! if somebody has that problem: I had some classes turned off. In the visibilities dialog to the left. I missed it somehow before. I turned on the class and it worked.

    DOORS IN VP

    Hi all, I am drawing some walls and doors. I already did the whole thing and the doors show normal on the design layer, when changing to VP the doors disappear. I checked the visibilities and the classes and I have everything on, and checked to be visible. what can I do? thanks guys
  7. I just watch the webinar about 3d terrain modeling with Eric Gilbey and Tamsin Slatter. It was fantastic!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!! I was wondering if there are other webinars around. I am a beginner- beginner in VW !!!! working in a company that only uses it . No CAD at all, which was my tool for many many years. The pressure here is very high and sometimes I just get stocked for ours trying to figure it out a simple tool in VW. Please let me know! I appreciate it!! Paola
  8. Thank you so so so much!! you guys are awesome!
  9. Hello, Anyone knows how to do a hatch with a rectangle or space inside (I have a shape that i cannot see because of the hatch), I think is call not associative?
  10. An how to change from arrows to dots or diagonals?? Sorry I am so annoying with this but I really can't figure it out. The info palette doesn't do it.
  11. I found it! Unconstrained linear dimension -under details. Ok but how to change the text / arrows size?
  12. Or when drawing on the design layer, how to change the size/ scale of the dimensions?
  13. HELLO, Any idea how to draw (inside VP annotations) an angular dimension?
  14. Hi all, It seems that the more I try to learn this program, the more problems I find with every step.... I am trying to create a set of architectural plans and the original site plan and survey are in autocad... I started from scratch, created the sheet layers, design layer,and imported on the design layer, a DWG file. It imported fine (or so I thought), as soon as it got imported a new weird design layer was automatically created with the name of the cad file. My original design layer was not editable anymore. I created a VP from the new weird design layer, it did it but some classes are turned off and was a terrible pain to get them on or vice versa in the VP. Then I tried to import a second CAD file to create another VP.I did it on the same weird design layer. It imported on top of my previous one...or something. everything looks like a huge mess. I hardly can separate things because there are so many blocks. And when I tried to create another design layer (after I saw this mess, I thought that may work), to import the second CAD file, as soon as I opened it, it already had the first CAD file imported...why?? Is there any trick to import CAD files? Please help me guys!!
  15. Thank Pat, that worked!
  16. Hello all!! Anybody knows how to draw Batt insulation and get rid of the black block/box it comes with it? I really cannot draw this, I have many many walls to fill in.
  17. Tamsin, I will try that!!! Thank you!
  18. Mitchell, The actual terrain I have to model is bigger of course. i am just attaching the bottom part that I was trying to work with. Thanks!
  19. Mitchell, Thank you again, this is really helping me a lot to understand VW... As sad as I know it looks...I am attaching a little piece of that "terrain" I have been trying to do, to show you how is rendering after I added the fill from the "site model settings" and a texture ... I am doing something really wrong here..
  20. Tamsin, Where do I check that the terrain has Mesh Solid as its 3 option? Thank you!
  21. Mitchell, I am using a "terrain" created from 3d polys, value to "z" and then applied the "create site model tool". Do I still needing to create a Digital Terrain Model on top of those? Where is that tool? I am using the VW that has everything (architect, landscape, etc), but I can't find that (DTM) tool. Thank you!

    Viewports

    Mitchell, That help a LOT!! thank you! I was creating the VP on the Sheet Layer! Thank you!
  23. Anyone knows how to render contour lines? I mean a terrain? I am just hitting rendering with shadows and of course only renders the lines of the contours making it look really funny. Is there any way to render the terrain as a solid object? instead of contour by contour when it doesn't even render the ones interpolated?

    Viewports

    This may be a really dumb question, but it's making me crazy. I am very new to this program and i am trying to set up a drawing from the beginning. I understand that the drawing should be done on the "Design Layer", then I create "Sheet Layers" and on those I create the "Viewports". I am trying to create a Viewport and a big rectangle with an x shows up. am I doing something wrong? A friend told me that I should scale the viewport. and I tried to do it on the object box, changing the scale of that rectangle, but nothing is happening. Any ideas?? Thank you!
