Print to PDF giving me a file that is not quite in scale
Jonathan Pickup replied to Christopher Mason's question in Troubleshooting
are you sure they are using actual size, have you seen them change the settings? I know my prints are out of scale if I don’t change the settings manually. -
edit the interior elevation viewports (they are really sections viewports) and adjust the height range, or add a crop object.

maybe an aligned hardscape would work, where you edit the profiles to get the falls you require.

I always take a mouse with me, I just can’t draw or use Vectorworks effectively with the trackpad.

CTRL key and middle mouse wheel on windows

It’s an old trick, but a goodie. the Loci don’t print so you can leave them if you want.
-
I use keyboard shortcuts all the time, use command+alt+v for paste in place, command+up arrow to get to the next layer, command+alt+v, command+up arrow, and so on

i use a locus on a corner of the building outside the viewport. copy the locus, move to the next layer, then Paste In Place (Edit Menu).
