Thanks mate.

Thanks for the help guys. I think I am just forced to use the basic Text Tool even though changing column widths is a right pain in the *** since the text wrapping gets competely screwed. I guess technology is just not there yet. Alan Woodwell: The attached pic is what I mean when I say specific items cannot be formatted unless I completely ungroup the notes. Only the whole body text can be formatted. As for importing PDFs, how does anyone save time by doing this, and importing an image into vectorworks for every job will just eat up your hard drive space in no time.

Thanks for the help. Is there any better way of writing notes than just using the basic Text Tool? Some of our notes are just a whole page of text so having particular important lines bold or underlined is essential so that the builder won't miss it by accident. Using the Text Tool is really inconvenient and a time waster for obvious reasons. From reading these forums it seems that a lot of people import their notes as PDF from word?

Hi Guys, Does anyone know how to format text within the general notes tool? I can only format everything or nothing at the moment. All I want is to make particular words bold or underlined. Unless I can do this the tool is pretty much useless. Thanks!!

Yes I am running multiple monitors. My main computer is a Macbook Pro and I have a 1080p monitor plugged in. But I just unplugged the monitor and restored all the laptop settings to default and it still doesn't work. I am running VW 2014 Build 201263. My Mac is a MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Late 2013), OSX Yosemite Version 10.10 (14A389). The units are displayed in Mils. The other units display fine without problems.

Hi guys, I am using a Mac Yosemite 10.10. I have attached 2 screenshots. One of them is a 12pt line coming up as 1.. The other is a line from one of my colleagues files and comes up as 7.. I actually can't tell what line thickness this is since it is not one of my defaults so doesn't even show up with a tick when I click on it. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi guys, I am using VW2014. When I have a line thickness greater than 9 and there are two or more digits in the thickness, the line thickness in the attributes palette becomes abbreviated and I can't actually see what thickness I have without clicking on the line thickness option. Example, if a line is thickness 12 it comes up as ----------1.. How do I stop abbreviations? I have tried maximizing the palette window but it just stays abbreviated. Thanks
