Now that Vectorworks supports the usd file format, I am curious how that could improve the file exchange between VW and Morpholio. Did anyone have the possibility to try it it yet?

Hi. Is it possible that you have pen colors and thickness for the inner masonry wall? I think the line for the inner component is in front of the GWB Wall. And the outer line is from the wall and not from the component. You have to turn off the pen thickness for the wall in your classes.

Am also all for it! Saw something similar for Blender with Stable Diffusion.

Seems like it's a general thing for chatgpt. Found this on reddit about chatgpt and dynamo/revit:

I have a similar feeling about it. 🤔

It's crazy what ChatGPT can do. I saw someone ask it to write an ifc file with a cube inside. And it worked! 😲

Hi, came across this announcement. https://www.solibri.com/inside?utm_campaign=Solibri Inside&utm_source=Press-Release-Solibri It sounds very interesting and might create a type of "closed" BIM inside the Nemetschek Group. The only downside is the SaaS. Another subscription to maintain. Nice to see though that Vectorworks is immediatly mentioned and not an afterthought. What are your thoughts? Regards!

Hi, sadly my experience with questions regarding ifc and the data manager has been less then stellar in the international forum. Somehow it's not a big topic. Our german forum is more active in those topics. Maybe because OpenBIM is more important in the DACH region. Cheers, elepp (pappadam1984)

Hi @Lyuben, thanks for your reply. The way I usually do it, is in the login window for VW 2022. I click on the create account button, if the colleague is new and not linked with our organisation already. An organisation cloud storage would be very useful. I could see some use cases there. One of the annoying things for me is that i need to invite each account to our shared workgroup folder. An organisation cloud storage would allow for default sharing of these folder, when a new colleague setups up an account.

That's how we use it as well.

Hi, we can now choose the location of the sever hosting our files on the Vectorworks Cloud. Our pain is now that I can't set the standard location for our office. Each account I create for my colleagues has San Francisco set as the standard. I would like to define an office standard location for us. This way our files get send first to servers that we have no interest in using as european customers. Regards!

Hi, I am using the german version but to the best of my knowledge the international version has a tool for that as well: https://app-help.vectorworks.net/2022/eng/VW2022_Guide/Structure/Batch renaming.htm?rhhlterm=batch classes class&rhsearch=batch classes Should be able to append text to classes. Greetings!

Hi folks, I came across this little helpful website: https://excelformulabot.com/ Maybe some of you have a use for it. But it would be great to have something like this for Vectorworks. I know plenty of people, who struggle with the right formulas. That would be a great help for them. Just some thoughts! Regards!
