What colors cna Spotlight Render? Is there a list of the color libraries available? I am using 9.5.3 and have Renderworks installed. Josh

I could print the file fine from 10.2.2 but I got a new computer and it came preloaded with 10.2.3. There is no way that I know of to reverse update down to 10.2.2. Josh Schulman

I am running OS 10.2.3 on a 12" PowerBook G4 and I cannot plot to the plotter in my building (an Oce TDS400 PS). I used to have an IBook running OS 10.2.2 and could print fine. I used connect to the plotter via my LPR port in PrintCenter. My computer tries to connect and eventually stops trying to send the file. Any thoughts? Josh Schulman

I just "upgraded" my computer from 9.2 to 10.2 and when I did so Vectorworks lost the fact that I also have Renderworks installed on it. If this is any help Vectorworks also asked me for my registration number (which I gave it) and has lost all of my old preferences, like customized tools. Any thoughts? Josh.

I am trying to make a stage floor with a 3? rake to it. When I build the object in 2-d mode (it is a little complex with a large curved apron) and extrude it, the texture that I appply to it appears on the extruded side, not on the top. Any thoughts? Joshua L. Schulman

How do you center a gobo in the light? I can get the gobo into the light but it is off center and I get 4 of them. They seem to be centering in the beam but I get 4 quarter gobos. Any thoughts?

Is there any way to quicken the process of scrolling in spotlight? I've got a 300 unit plot on my mac (with a 500 megahertz G3 & 576 MB of ram) and it makes my computer run very slow. It has crashed on me a couple of times and is almost impossible to view with the light info turned on. I need to see the light info so I can check it before I plot it. I am also having a huge problem trying to take the plot off of my computer and put it onto a PC. We both have all of the same fonts (including Archie that we downloaded from your website) but it takes alll of the text inj the plot not attached to a unit (like the title block info and notes) and it shifts all of it in what appears to be larger spacing. It also keeps changing the font sizes so everytime that we take the plot from my Mac to the PC we have to re-edit all of the text. Do you have any solutions to these problems? I really like Spotlight in theory but in practice it runs so slow that it is almost unusable. I'm also having a problem with the lable ledgend manager displacing some of my unit info strangely. I have a few units that are at 45? angles on the plot and the lables keep shifting weird. I've tried using modified lable ledgends for them but it looks like it is failing to recognize the fact that the units have been rotated. Thanks.

Is there no boom base symbol in Spotlight? I thought that I had seen one there before. I might be mistaken. Also, how would you go about creating a verticle truss instead of a horizontal truss? Thanks
