  1. Thank you very much for your responses Art V. I appreciate you reminding/ teaching me things about computers, hehe. 

    I'm changing from working on a laptop to a desktop with a new bigger screen. I read in another forum that this "floating data bar" is like this because of the vectorworks version I'm using vs the screen options resolutions on new computers. The Vectorworks person on the forum said he was going to tell the creators to improve that for newer versions.

    I guess I need to get used to another tool in the meantime I get a newer version. 

    At least I know it's not something I did wrong. 

    Thanks,

     

  2. Hello!.

     

    I just changed from laptop to a 28" screen to work better on vectorworks, but now the information box when I measure is incomplete. On other words, using a line trying to measure doesnt show the whole information on the text-information box, the numbers appear half of them. Also, Arributes text: solid and opacity looks so small that I cant read them and that is happening with other palettes. Can somebody help me?. Thanks,

    SG

  3. Thanks Tom. I repaired the Z height. It was 16' below of "0" origin. The only thing is now in my height and view height, when setting the perspective, I am needing to put 16'+5' (my height)=21' to be able to see it normal. I guess for the next drawing I will should set the "0" origin from the beggining of the drawing.

    Our students just create wireframe walls, boxes....and drop in a camera and play around with fine tune. Print and draw using the wireframe as a guide.

    Thank you Tom and Barkest, the option of the camera is working. But I still would like to be able to do it with the first option Tom says.

    Fastest way is CMD+0 - then draw a line from where you want to stand to where you want to look.  Then a box will ask you your eye height and the height of what you are looking at.  BAM.  Perspective.  You can then change the View / Projection menu commands.  You then can make a viewport or saved view of the view when you have it correct.  

    OR You can use the camera tool to set a camera....

    Thank you Tom!. I click CMD+0, draw the line in plan view, then the box ask the height; but from there the perspective square in "Empty". I don't see anything in perspective :(.
