  1. On my copy, the Move Page (Spot) tool is right next to the old one on the 2D Tools. The problem, Kacey, is that the MP(S) tool is doing the same thing - units are moving but the accesories aren't. I don't see any difference.
  2. Has anyone gotten this feature to work? I click on the unit and then click on the label as per the directions but then I still wind up moving the whole unit. Does this only work in the full version 9?
  3. On to my next problem o' the day (though today it's been two): Unit replacement doesn't seem to work at all. Even on an empty drawing, I place a unit, ask to replace it and I get an hourglass of death and have to stop the program with a three-fingered salute. I'm running the Windows version 8.5.2.
  4. Never mind. Got that working now, too. Just as you said, it's tricky!!
  5. I've now got it working for units. Anyway to do the same thing for position labels?
  6. I'm pretty sure all of these things are correct so I'm going to send you the file to take a look at. You should be able to try the same thing I'm doing by making a small plot with 2 units and importing this data. Let me know how it works....
  7. I'm breaking the rules a bit in this process but it seems to be working except for one step. What I'm trying to do is to import data from an already existing Lightwright file into a newly created plot. I exported the plot data (units with only inst data, positions and unit #s) into a file which I then imported into LW. I then merged this file with the existing LW data file creating a new one that now contains both the VW external ID and the LW ID. I export this from LW and everything looks fine in the data file but when I then try to reimport this into VW, it says it is importing but the units aren't updated and no orphans are created. Any ideas?
