I drop this also just in case someone might be interested: https://www.vectorworks.net/support/quality-tested-hardware/faq https://www.vectorworks.net/support/quality-tested-hardware

I'm interested in buying a Lenovo Thinkstation P620 (https://www.lenovo.com/us/en/think-workstations/thinkstation-p-series-towers/ThinkStation-P620/p/33TS3TPP620) Form what I can see on ISV certifications (https://www.thinkworkstations.com/isv-certifications/) is that the card I'm interested in (Nvidia Quadro RTX 5000) is supported.

But it seems that Twinmotion Direct Link will really happen at some point. Listen to Dr. Biplab Sarkar speaking about it in his 2020 Design Summit presentation (min 13:45). Also the fact that Redshift renderer, recently acquired by Maxon is coming to Vectorworks is very exciting. Listen to Dr. Biplab Sarkar at min 13:30. Also check out this article that briefly mentions it: https://gfxspeak.com/2020/05/07/maxon-actually-several/ I'm also very much thinking of saying goodbye to Apple and making the move to Windows. Hardware is just much less expensive and the ability to be able to work with Nvidia RTX graphics cards and AMD's Thread Ripper CPUs just leaves Apple hardware performance very far behind. Just go to Puget Systems and try configuring your custom PC, by paying much less you get much greater performance. I'll wait until the June 22 Developers conference and hopefully a new iMac or iMac Pro comes out and that real time raytracing is in some way brought to the Mac. But neither of that is likely to happen and that's when I shall definitely wave goodbye to Apple. I hoped that today some new graphic cards where to be announced on GTC 2020 but sadly that did not occur but Nvidia's Omniverse development is amazing.

Totally agree, I just requested the live link feature.

This is incredible. I'm learning Unreal Engine at the moment and knowing that these new technologies will come soon in the future keeps me very motivated.

Many thanks for you reply @Pat Stanford. I can find other ways to solve the issue I'm having. Actually it's not really a problem, I just thought there was a quick and easy way. There is absolutely no need for anyone to help me and spend so much time creating the script!

Many thanks for your answer. Now I can stop trying.

I'd like the count values of a database to be shown in a text field. For example, I'd like a text field to show the cell value of row 2.7 and column D from the database.

@Pat Stanford how can one read a value from a database and get that value into a Text field?

Same question as Jacob here...

Many many thanks @Pat Stanford it works great.

Hi, Establishing criteria for databases is easy: Database header cell: =CompAreaByClass('Class-1') using the previous function and establishing criteria I manage to show results only form a particular layer. What I can't do is the following, I want in a normal worksheet cell to get the area of my components but specify from which layer. I know I have to use this function: Spreadsheet cell: =CompAreaByClass(t=wall,'Class-1') What do I need to add to the function above to specify the search in a particular layer? Thanks in advance, Martín

@markdd@Amorphous - Julian@Pat Stanford@mgries My apologies for replying so late! I've had a busy week.

My pleasure. Glad to see the support this wishlist has raised. I hope we can still get plenty more votes!

@Amorphous - Julian I think this is a very good ideas as of to how the harmony between symbols and record formats could be improved. I'm glad you find this issue important and the examples you give of the trouble this causes in your office are very interesting.
