  1. So obviously there is no interactive setting to do this. That is sad since that is where we can go to modify the colors for many settings. Wish list here I come. @Pat Stanford, I'll see what I can do about getting your daughters that pony they want.
  2. Wireframe instead of shaded is better. Turn off grey other objects is not what I want. I really want to enhance the grey of the other objects so I can see them (a bit more).
  3. Is the a way to change the appearance of other objects when editing a solid? I can barely see the other objects.
  4. I can hide objects in a viewport using the hide object mode of the visibility tool. How do I get all of the hidden objects in the viewport to show again? I tried double clicking the tool icon and I tried the Unhide Objects command, but they don't work.
  5. I have added a few new devices and updated the record to include the brand. Here's the file: Electrical Devices.vwx
  6. Thanks @Pat Stanford for trying to help figure this out. I'm going to walk away from this now since it appears the info Vectorworks is trying to convey is not info I need, but I do still wonder if maybe they use this info for VoiceOver. For my use, I would find it more beneficial to enlarge the hierarchy so I see that better.
  7. The C changes to O when the nested class is expanded. I assume the letters designate something to vision challenged people, but what?
  8. I use Accessibility/Zoom on my Mac (don't get old!). When I hover over the classes there's some other text. I see B1, B2 and C1, maybe others too. What is Vectorworks telling me when it shows B2 here?
  9. Thanks @propstuff and @markdd. Both of those methods work. I knew there had to be a Vectorworks way!
  10. Is there a simpler way to bisect this angle? I used geometry, I drew an arc, then I drew a line from the corner through the arc center. I wonder if there's a faster way using Vectorworks tools?
  11. It was not, but it is now! Thanks @markdd
  12. I thought I had this working. My "Scale" data tag says the VP is 1:1, but it is really 1:28. Is there a way to make the scale data tag display the correct scale for a VP?
  13. Nope, can't remove the command. Oh well, I will just ignore it then.
  14. Thanks @rDesign. Since I will never use it, I will remove it from my context menu. That is my plan.
  15. I see this command when I'm in a Viewport and I right click on the VP. I can't tell any difference from Edit Design Layer.
  16. I suggest you call to support on that one.
  17. Yep, patience is the key. I see it now.
  18. The message center says that Update 4 is available, but my install say I am up to date. What gives? Do I just need to wait a bit?
  19. Just like redefining a saved view. No, I don't want objects to move. Say I created an object and set a working plane to the top, and save that WP as "Top." Then for some reason I rotate the object, set a working plane for the new orientation of the top, and save it as "Top". Then I want Vectorworks to ask me if I want to overwrite the exist WP named Top. As it is now, all I can do is cancel because Vectorworks says that name is already in use.
  20. It sure would be nice if we could redefine a working plane.
  21. As @Tom W. pointed out I have to have 3D axes turned ON in grid settings, and I had that turned off.
