I'm curious why images will only render in Orthogonal view in render works and not in perspective views? I would like to figure out a workflow with the hundreds of signage pieces i have to put in a 3D model and be able to pull worksheet info out of their dimensions and locations. Really wish they showed up in Renderworks views. I guess I could use image props? Some of them won't be on the vertical plane. Image props tend to be a lot slower to select and move around than a simple image imported into the layer.

Still haven't found a good solution here. Have tried to set up BBEdit to no avail. Wondering if a emacs setup is best. Anyway, guess Xcode works relatively well for now.

Same issue here. I think it's model complexity. I have other layers that render out to hidden line fine in my view ports. The layer that doesn't render to hidden line, and stays at wireframe without any prompt explaining the error is a complicated 3D model partially imported from a Rhino file. Like I said, other layers render to wireframe fine. Also when I'm editing in the complicated design layer and try to view as hidden line it throws up an error stating that it's out of memory. (Good thing I have 16 gigs!)

This problem happened to me. It appears it was related to just the file and some history within it. I copy and pasted the model to another file and the clipping plane glitches went away. My hypothesis is that an earlier scaling of the model, in this case it was an imported pdf that's scale was off by a large factor, set the clipping plane of the 3D engine and even when deleted the erroneous clipping plane remained.

Tried to setup TextWrangler with vs.py code completion today but couldn't get it working.

What programs are people using to develop python for vector works on a mac? I'm setup with Xcode 5 (and git for version control). But I haven't gotten code completion working in Xcode 5. Any tips? Any other ide's or editors that people are using?

Definitely can report that I'm having the same problem with importing other files in python. Anyone find any workaround besides including all code in one file? Update: One of the other posters has a workaround in another thread: import vs import vs, test from imp import reload reload (test) This reloads the test module and seems to solve my issues. Appears like vector works doesn't reload modules automatically.
