I'm getting constant crashed, files taking ages to open or just causing the Vectorworks program to be 'Application not responding' and me having to force quit it - multiple times in a day! I'm currently downloading VW2024 as I can afford to be losing this much time on the VW25 not working efficiently

Any suggestions on the exporting to DWG issues?

I'm also having an issue with the export to dwg. I've selected 2no. sheets to export and I keep getting "you must select at least one sheet layer" The same happens with design layers in export too

Hello all Since upgrading to Vectorworks 2024 when i insert doors/windows to my walls the hole's no longer take on the texture settings I choose. It appears that the holes take on the texture of the one of the sides of my wall however! I have brick texture to the left and 'wall paint' to the right. I have changed the 'holes' texture but it keeps the brick from the left side texture option. Screenshot attached - you'll see I have some tiles selected for the holes and it's not showing that - I dont want it tiled, this is just to show as an example of it not working. I'm sure it's a simple fix but I can figure it out!

if you do what Ian above suggested that works. I’ve not had to do it every time I open VW22 but a few times. It’s not a long term fix but it does resolve it for you to carry on and use VW22 in the meantime

Hi Ian, That seems to have worked!! How odd.

Hi all I've spoken with the tech team through my service select and they're looking into it. We tried a couple of things with no luck I will report back if I get any updates.

Ignore the above....BUT after a reinstall the menu bar still isnt working!

I've just uninstalled VW22 as per the above suggestion and now I'm re-installing its saying there isn't enough disk space! I have 80GB free space, the installer says 30GB is needed.... Can anyone help ASAP?

Hi all Just upgraded to VW2022 and I've noticed when I want to change a class colour or line thickness in the viewport nothing changes once I update said viewport. I opened the same file in VW2021 and carries out the same action and it worked fine. Is there something new in VW2022 that doesn't allow this for some reason, or a setting I need to change?

Hi pjjmcc, Whilst the window/door is selected go to your Object info pallet and amend the 'Plan Wall Offset' under the general section. I hope this is what you meant Niki

Just updated my VW2021 to SP2 and the tabs still detach fairly easy.....maybe its me?

is the "dock tabs' option available to you as mentioned above? I notice you are running Catalina too and wondered if thats why my option is greyed out!

The option 'Dock all tabs here' is greyed out on mine so I'm unable to select it, any ideas?

Morning all Every time I insert a door it puts itself on the 'dimension' class. Some of my windows are ok but some not so I've obviously set some up correctly. They are 3D door styles that I once set up to use on all projects. I cant seem to find how to now edit these so that they insert on my chosen class. Any help/advice welcome please.
