    Wall area

    I've been trying to figure out how to quickly check a wall (or a set of walls) area, and can't figure out. It would be nice just clicking on a wall and looking at the object info palette for the info but it is not available there as it is for a 2D polygon for example. How can I quickly check this info? Thanks!
  3. I have tried several times to download the trial with no success. I have received an email with several instructions and I see a line that sayys: "Be sure to save this e-mail, as you will need the evaluation serial number provided below to activate the software after installation. To download your trial version, please choose one of these links:" BUT THERE ARE NO LINKS!! I have tried with 2 different email adresses, in differente browsers with no success. I already have 2 evaluation serial numbers, but can't download the software. What can I do? Thanks.
  4. I am using 10.6 and VW 2009 and while it is true it quits everytime I try to import any DWG file, it is running fine for me. I'll keep you up to date.
  5. Is anyone using VW 2009 on a new 2009 iMac, specifically the base 20" model with a NVIDIA GeForce 9400M graphics processor with 256MB of DDR3 SDRAM shared with main memory? Maybe I can upgrade my current iMac and I would like to know how VW runs on it, because I feel it slow in both my current iMac and MacBook. Thank U
  6. Great. Thank you. Through this forum I've been solving all my issues as I just adopted VW2009. Great place. I will come back on monday for the update.
  7. Andrew: You got it! Excellent! Double clicking over the object snapping tool was the clue; the last box was unchecked. Now precision is back... Thanks a lot!
  8. I am using VW 2009 in Spanish and I am having serious trouble with snapping. In VW 2008 and previous, each time I was drawing a line, if I moved the cursor to a line or an arc. it will always show a cue like "obect/perpendicular" or "point" or whatever, that allowed me to finish the line exactly in another one, or in the border of a circle or an arc. In 2009, I have the same snap options I have used in previous versions, but I can't get snaps to correctly help me. So my drawings are very inaccurate now, if I zoom closer I can clearly see lines do not end exactly where I wanted to, when I drag a line to snap it exactly over another one it does NOT snap correctly, almost all the time it ends very close, but not exactly over the other one. What is going on? I have tried turning on all snap cues, and also tried the different preferences with no success yet. The general sensation it gives to me is that 2009 is not precise. Anyway I can't believe this, something must be not configured. What can it be? I have searched the site for updates, but there are no service packs available for Spanish. In another post I did some days ago I was told spanish SP3 will come today. Will these bring back my snaps? Thank you for your input.
  9. I'm really disappointed with this issue. My office made a big investment upgrading several workstations, and the local distributor never told us this essential tools were not included in the basic package. Looking across the webpage I can't find a precise comparison between the different packages.
  10. Were this items removed from Fundamentals in 2009? I had the idea this things appeared in version 12 or 2008 and I thought they were available across all packages. Very disappointing for me, as they are key tools for my work.
  11. I've been just upgraded to spanish version of Fundamentals 2009, but the version my office bought has two of my favourite commands grayed out... Rotate plan is not available, and neither the Navigation palette... Is anything I can do? Does one have to pay extra for these great features? Those were the best ones, I can't believe I will have to work without them.
  12. Where are the updates for the Spanish versionof VW 2009? Thank you, Hugo
