I Agree Russ, I will add this to the feature request.

You could make them a hanging position? As far as I am aware only connecting truss items can have the same truss system name.
The other thing to bear in mind is you can always ungroup a hanging position and then make it again if you find that workflow restrictive.

Why have you got the sockets in the rack 3d layout? The sockets/devices should be on a separate layer? If you want to show 3d racks on top of devices and schematics combined somehow then i would use 2 separate viewports one on top of the other.

I spotted this in a training session the other day. It has been reported as a bug.
For now copy and then rejoin, apologies for the extra step required, a fix is being worked on.

hmmmmm
the only way I have been able to do this is to attach a relevant record to the symbol and then insert it with an appropriate plug in tool. Then I can 'Tag' it with the Equipment Item Tool.
Not very elegant but it does work. Further conversations to be had internally about this.
Many thanks.

Yes, The equipment item itself can have 'Use symbol' checked and then a symbol can be selected from the resource manager.
Did that answer your question?- 1

"I wonder also if it is possible to remove the panel text (CTP_xxx) in Rack 3D Layout like it is in Rack Elevation?"
This won't show up in a section viewport provided Planar objects is unchecked in the viewport settings on the object info palate.

Spoke with ETC, The PC version is ready but they have had some issues with Mac OS (Not Vectorworks). They are working on this at the moment and will post both platform versions once ready.

You shouldn't need the workaround too much longer and symbols are unaffected. This is being worked on currently.
In terms of more than one accessory this still works (Eg Scroller top-hat) The accessory tool knows that you are effectively mounting an accessory on an accessory.I will keep you updated.

Thanks Josh.
I have reported them as VB not VE, They are a regression, absolutely.
I agree we do need to consider every tweak and the knock on implications. I would also hope that the Beta testers whom are on this thread will also understand the importance of testing these tools at a most crucial stage in the softwares development.
I will endeavour to get this resolved as quickly as possible.

As far as I am aware, The Hoist tool works in conjunction with the new cable tools, Hence a cable is drawn and its length calculated by the cable tool.
You could add additional records to hoists if you just wanted to enter the value on the hoist?
My colleague @JCodgell might be able to elaborate further.

Providing you use geometry you will always be able to double click and edit the geometry.
You can also Edit > Ungroup to convert a hanging position back to just geometry.
I don't believe Hanging Position will become legacy in terms of being 'retired' There will always be a need to create a hanging position from non standard custom geometry.

Not seen that before Matt, Could you post a screen recording or copy of the file?

Hi Patrick, I have filled a bug with your file. I could not find an explanation either.
All the best

There was a service pack release for 2021, can you ensure that the user is running the latest sp for 2021? If they are and it is still occurring let me know here and I will escalate.

Any chance you can post a file Patrick?
Need to check parts records etc.
-
Can you post the file? Or just the truss part of the file?
-
Can you post the file? Or a copy of the lighting device within the file?
Just check do you have 3d label legends in use?
-
Right Click on the screen or surface in Vision and choose assign video input, Name it then select a stream from the list.
It might do all panels as individual screens (I cannot remember). Test this with an extrude sent from Vectorworks.
Hope that helps!

Go to Spotlight > Reports > Lighting Symbol Maintenance. Check all of the instruments on the plot have the frame size filled out.
If this doesn't fix it contact UK tech Support Also you can DM me the file.
-
I Agree. Is there an existing Jira for this? Or should I make one?
-
Hi Katy!
Apologies been busy with Plasa, This video should help.
When you create a class from scratch you can choose which viewports and saved views it should be present in. However when Spotlight creates the class for you, You will need to edit viewports and saved views in the organization dialogue below.
I guess the trick is, is to have every conceivable light and its class in your template file.This would be an enhancement request which I will make.
I will get to your other problem shortly.All the best
