Hello: In my experience, importing single models from a BIM Library isn't a problem. But if I try to import an entire building, for develop an extension for example, is completely a nightmare. ( adding to this, people that work with REVIT comes from AutoCAD and you know what's mean that). Well, technically speaking, when import a REVIT file, grows and grows. And all are meshes. VectorWorks prefer work with generic solids. Then it is not a good idea import it. The last file I try import from a 144.3 Mb rvt file, grows to a 1.2 Gb

That is un useful. Because lost data in the transfer

Jim: I am using an iMac 2013 and a MacBook Pro 17 2011. Both with High Sierra. VW 2017 works fine and as always except with an issue in the Info Palette. When click on a rectangle for example, the section points in the Info Palette are bad positioned.

Im working with VW in a MacBook Pro and an iMac with High Sierra. All works fine except an issue in the Info Palette

Sorry; But where in the Library?

Hello Robert: In my experience a good BIM Design Team must work with two CAD platforms. Not in parallel but complementing each other. And using the same information model shared via IFC. For example: The Building architecture, structural model and electrical devises; are made in VectorWorks. And MEP in other software like Data Design System from Nemetschek as well. When work with other professionals like Civil Engineers ( that may use REVIT and SAP2000 for example ), VectorWorks export to IFC, SAP or REVIT natively, then I never had have troubles. Then go ahead and be sure all will works fine. Best regards

Thanks a lot

Hello to all: In the Space polygon, I set Space Name, Occupancy Org and Occupant. There are any way to put them in the Worksheet like the Name and Area?

Hello to all: My expertise is developing all the architectural design with VectorWorks and sharing with SOLIBRI and FRAMECAD STRUCTURE to produce the steel framing in automatizad way. Regards

And if do you want set for example: 10.2453300123 to 10.25? Round cuts ALL DECIMALS and set to zero.

Hello: By the way, what is the syntax for show the symbol name in a Worksheet? cheers

Here the solution: In User/Library/Preferences: Search RenderWorks and delete all. After that all will works fine again

Well And whats the solution?

Then we must wait for it. I hope works fine. Other thing, I want migrate to 2017, but in Chile the projects are going less each day. Cheers

Exactly: We then must pay for use!

Sorry: You are running VectorWorks 2016 on OSX Sierra? How is it? I tried a very times after update my Mac to run VW 2016, but nothing happens. The app icon even do not bounce on the dock. After that appears an error log and crash.

Hello: Why I can't change the Quantity Label data?

This issue is present since VW 2008 at less. Now with 2016 happens the same. Unfortunately, I try to change the values in Info Palette, and returns to the original and bad data.
