    Last week, I added an article about the Data Tag tool to my knowledge base web site : https://archoncad.com/knowledge-base/data-tag/

    that should work. it works for me.

    Use the Core Component Control line mode.

    I don't think this has anything to do with stories. I think you can use the modes on the tool bar to sort that out:

    it would be nice if it was quicker. If I was an intermediate user, I might achieve this by creating a small script using the Tools > Custom Tool/Attribute command.

    Hi christiaan, I have started to add my tags to the annotation part of the viewport. I find that it can read all the information that I want and it is where I want for that viewport. it doesn't matter that it is not on the same layer as the door, any updates to the door automatically go to the Data Tag.

    I tend to connect the line style to a class. Then, when I assign the Object the correct class, it shows the correct line style. I find this a productive way to work.

    you can use a worksheet to report the areas. there is a function that will calculate the areas of the roof along the slope. If you add a name to each roof face, you can sort the worksheet to give you the data for each roof face.

    Hi Terry, can you explain a bit more please? when you place a viewport, the location of the viewport is relative to the sheet layer, the center of the sheet layer is a 0,0.

    I have just tried this, and I get the same results with the hardscape tool.

    I like the idea of Dimension Styles if we could access them in the Resouces manager.

    This is easy to do with a worksheet. is there a reason why you don't want to do that?
  14. Jonathan Pickup
    does this mean that you want the tag to count up all the instances in the layer, or do you want the tag to join to more than one object?
  15. Jonathan Pickup
    if you are connecting walls, couldn't you use the Wall Join tool?
  16. Jonathan Pickup
    can you turn off the classes for the components? (assuming that the components are on separate classes to the overall wall?
  17. Jonathan Pickup
    why dont you use Layer and Class mapping to convert all the classes into the order that you want. you can save the layer and class setting to reuse them
  18. Jonathan Pickup
    Yes, this is the expected behaviour. Hybrid symbols can only be rotated or mirrored in top plan. Removing the plan portion of the symbol should allow you mirror the object vertically.

    you don't need landmark to create a site model, the commands you need are in Architect, in the AEC menu. You can create a site model from 3D loci, stake objects, or 3D polygons.

    put them on the same layer and set them to the different heights. Having too many layers would get confusing.

    if it has been created as a vector-based pdf. If it a raster-based pdf, then no.
  22. Jonathan Pickup
    i think it's reasonably easy. crop the PDF, clip a hole in it. I made a movie to show you

    Jonathan Pickup replied to Sade's question in Troubleshooting

    to start with, Vectorworks uses the center of the profile object. Create the EAP then edit the profile. Move the profile to the desired location.

    is the door solid or glazed?
