Seems VW suport don't have a clue how to deal with it either.. 4 days a still no closer to a solution. Revit license incoming...👀

Hi All, Has anyone had/having the same issue and know of a fix?

Hi, We are looking for a consultant to take on some BIM design requirements using VW for projects here in the UK. We have a number of projects that need input at BIM level 3 and above in specialist environments , this current project is a film/production studio. This would be a steady stream of work on an project by project basis as you may have other things you wish to get on with. Please get in touch if you are interested and have experience of UK BIM protocols and procedures on meduim size team projects. Thanks in advance.

Say I have designed a project and want to set falls into terraces and paths, is there a way to set falls and crossfalls into the hardscape in question? The simple workflow I can think of is pick each corner of a terrace and give it an elevation based off a datum, as you would do when setting out onsite as a contractor. For example: Paved surface on a level threshold would be 115.30 AOD, terraces extends out 10000mm on a 1:80 fall away from the building would produce a fall of -125mm resulting in a a level of 115.175 AOD. I have a feeling this won't be as straightford in VW as it could be.

All sorted... numbers of points and text didn't match

When I run this i get lines all over the over 80 meters apart, is there a way to reduce the distance between text and level point to say 1 meter ?

Thanks Tom.... seems to be ok

Hi All, Despite 90% of all existing textures being US based companies and 30000 different types of irrelevant block paving.... where do the UK market/designers find suitable textures relevant to our market and easily downloadable. Any help would be great..

I have managed a workaround by editing in the object info panel as a start, then it seems to work fine.

Hi All, Anyone had this when clicking duplicate plant style not just loops back and does not allow you to edit at all? Thanks Stuart

Does anyone know how to vary Kirb widths in a hardscape..or is it not possible and requires a bodge up? Thanks in advance.

Problem solved, takes longer than it used to as its been set up like a wall modifier.... quality improvement!!

So it seems VW have changed how planting plans work for 3 years they have been a breeze to produce but now it seems not. I can no longer choose a black and white circle, then edit plant style to produce planting plans using a single black circles as per attached plan with tags etc in Latin. Does anyone have a work around for this. HAR-LAN-220012-9501 (Planning issue).pdf

Hi.. No i did not, but i just have and thank you Stu

Updated my service pack recently on the 22nd September - seems it turns off autosave as all my projects last auto save was back then and Vectorworks has just crashed losing a weeks work. NICE ONE VECTORWORKS
