thanks Wes & Alan!

can't seem to figure out why the wall won't clip to the roof? Any ideas anyone??! F_ing_Roof.vwx

duplicate along a path (its under edit menu)

I prefer the bug answer ! Why would you add so many additional steps to the process from 17? I can't add any additional areas to the existing slab in modifier mode? (also I can't see the plan I'm trying to extend in modifier mode!!)

any one have this issue??: I have a slab with about 7 components; I draw a standard rectangle and create a slab , no problems, I then add another rectangle (overlapping) and select both and add surface, all works , original slab is extended. If however I try to add another area with the same add surface workflow, it will not join onto the slab, unless its a new edge of the original slab. note - it seems to work fine if the rectangle overlaps the original slab but will not extend an already extended piece... ie. the orange bit won't add onto the white slab bit slab.vwx

voted ! but 2020 is far too long to wait for an update on this , likewise window and door tools..... shouldn't even be on a wishlist in the first place.

I'm on High Sierra 10.13.1 , Vectorworks 18 SP2 and R19.024 and all ok - ie getting option about merge when changing vectorworks drawing......

Try corona for c4d , great for archviz, https://corona-renderer.com/ free beta at the moment with expected release in the new year

agree, also useful for cappings and trims

thanks for reply, the old reliable restart fixed it !

subscription library seems to have disappeared from resources with SP2? or just me?

hmm! maybe you need to do two roof faces? one with just the tiles and another with structure (clip this one to back to walls?) - not very helpful I'm afraid!

adding a bound offset in the component settings should work - a minus value for the mineral wool etc , maybe a plus 10mm for the clay tiles. (main bound set to Roof Edge)

definite purchase , well done Andrea. (should be default for a cad architecture program vectorworks?!..... along with the ability to drop same symbols into door architraves ...)

needed a restart also ! installed now thanks

when I click the dmg file , I get the Dropbox Installer window above with nothing in it. If i close this and check in finder , I see Vectorworks 2018 Installer mounted but nothing happens when i click icon.

anyone on a imac 10.13 got this working? installer seems to open in a folder called dropbox installer and then nothing....

ah, understood, I normally wouldn't go from C4D back to vectorworks for renders. My preferred method is to use a basic color in vectorworks for each material so I can isolate it quickly in C4D, ie <select texture tags of object> and change all materials at once to C4D one - I can't recommend Corona for C4d enough - really simple to use and good results, currently a free beta...

this would be a great integration , https://www.allegorithmic.com/architecture , seems to be taking off in all render engines and I use it in C4D

why?! Why?! WHY !!!!!!!! what benefit (purpose) do you get in going from C4D > Vectorworks with materials?

that Archicad video is depressing to watch... ! While the yearly C4D ports to Vectorworks are nice , the bread and butter also needs constant attention - the first thing you use on each job .....windows, doors and stairs...

why isn't foliage available in vectorworks architect?

good source for Materials = https://www.poliigon.com/home , also I really would recommend substance https://www.allegorithmic.com/products/substance-source , these can be plugged directly into C4D. quick tips = https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-CyUjCQAWw8&list=PLg8gGXlcb1Dq0xiJz9tfG49XwgKKpJZ-v there are a number of 3rd party render plugins for C4D - for arch viz I recommend Corona - currently a free beta - really easy to use , https://corona-renderer.com ,
