Use the hardscape tool with custom elevations. The sky is the limit using that tool.
Spotlight doesn't have the Hardscape tool.
Theatre4jc's request is a very valid need for Spotlight users.

Claes, how does that compare quality wise to Nomad?

I'll need to hunt through my old hard drives for them.

Have you tried drawing it with the Hardscape tool using the Path Mode for the roadway parts.
The Roadway tool can also be used. I'm not sure how you could model the flared and portions with different radii corners on each side.- 1

Doors can't extend past the end of a wall so you will have to create Openings with the Door Tool in the separate walls and then manually place the door into the opening created. Make sure the Wall Insertion Mode is off when you do that to prevent it inserting it into one of the walls. It might also be prudent to give it a unique Class and temporarily switch the Class Options to Show/Snap Others.

I've seen this problem before. Try clicking on the inside for the problematic segment and see if that offsets it outwards.
Can you please bug report your problem. -
You will need to create your own gate pair symbol. Duplicate the existing symbol and then mirror the gate parts.

Why is the Component Edit palette/Bar the only one, that I cannot make disappear – when it is also the only one, that I am never ever going to use?
There is this menu item called Palettes, where every other palettes can be turned on and off. Please include the Component edit palette in this menu.
Be gone Component Edit Palette – and good riddance.
Kaare, can you please post a contextual image of which palette you are referring to. -

One of the 1st things I do is create a generic catch-all class I call "non-plot" to put things in that I don't want to see in viewports.
The Non-Plot Class is created by both Door and Window Objects.

Is this something that's explicitly stated in VW documentation or "getting started" guides that new users are likely to read/watch?
My observation from years of experience helping people sort out Vw problems.
I've seen more than a few users tie themselves up in knots by setting their None Class to invisible or having its line weight set to zero or using a pen colour that matches the colour of their background. -

It was set invisible then I changed it. That's how I figured as part of a symbol it is buried on the none class and doesn't change even though the symbol attributes are set to "by class" that is active when the symbol is inserted. I found this out with another symbol (drawing label).
The None Class is the equivalent of the 0 Layer in Autocad. You need to have it visible all the time including in every Sheet Layer and Design Layer Viewport. It also needs to have a pen thickness and a visible pen colour.

So the door leaf is on the NONE class. I placed the doors on another class and it seems as though the jambs take the active class but the leaf and swing and whatever else stays in the NONE class.
Three things to check:
1) Is your None Class set to visible on your design layers and your Sheet Layer Viewports? The None Class needs to be always visible.
2) Is your None Class pen thickness set to 0.00? If it is then that is why you can't see the leaf and swing linework.
3) Is your pen colour set to the same colour as your screen background? That would make the leaf and swing 'invisible'.

In the list immediately above you need to hilight the item you want to define the height of.

Ceilings need to be a separate object type that can be horizontal, raked and vertical (for bulkheads). Their components also need to seamlessly join.
We also need the ability to have walls automatically clip ceiling components so the structural cores join.

Make sure your Door object container Class and its component Classes all have fills.
There is a Hardware tab in settings. Make sure Include Hardware has a checkmark against it and you have selected a Hardware Set. -
Check Document Preferences to see if you have Enable legacy 2D features turned on and Turn on unified view turned on. Both should be set to off.

Try deleting your User folder and then let Vectorworks create a new one when you restart it.
In Vectorworks Preferences under the User Folders tab there is a Reveal in Finder button.- 1

Line-weight, the Chain Extrude command has always only worked on paths which have straight line segments. The paths also need to be parallel to the Ground Plane.

Model it how you think it would be built.
If all the battens need to be the same size and shape try using Duplicate along Path in Fixed Distance mode.- 2
