  1. This is an ongoing issue.It is harder and harder to defend, "features" are introduced and implemented to great hoopla. However, they do not work as needed. Sometimes that is they work as designed, but the design does not match the users' needs. I think this is one reason I have abandoned the Clipcube feature. It is a problem throughout the program. As one colleague (he can identify himself if he desires) often states, VWX needs a maintenance release. Apple has done this with MacOS and iOS, one release version does nothing but fix bugs. We need that version. In the meantime when I hear what if we did this or what if we add that, my thoughts go immediately to what will break?
  2. I think the arrays would;d have to be saved as symbols
  3. Not if that projector is a hybrid symbol, I do not think, but if it's 3D only, should be fine.
  4. I have and had the correct version, now I am getting a message about service select, As a beta tester, I thought I had that access?
  5. It has to be a texture. The image fill is only or 2D objects, as far as I know. If it is one screen shouldn't be a problem, that's part of why I start with existing stock content. I will size the texrture in photoshop ahead of time if required. If you're using multiple screen objects, then you willed the Landru Design version of the PIO and the Video Tile Command. Typically you select a 3D object and can assign a texture in different ways, In this case you have to use the OIP and the 3D Options button
  6. I usually duplicate one of the textures in the stock content and then change the image in the texture definition.
  7. The book was written using a specific release and the Designer Package. Your mileage may vary. Page 303 gives a broad overview or creating a record format and a report. To create the report, you use the Tile Block Record, that might not be the correct name, but there is a record if you're using a stock title block, which I recommend. I thought there as also a bit about creating a record and using it to count benches somewhere, but I might have written that for some other purpose.
  8. I have not done the comparison, but somewhere along the way VWX added the option to export PDFs as rasterized. I prefer them to be vector, so I don't look for this option. I wonder if it has become default in 2024?
  9. The report is called Drawing List, so that might affect your search. I don't where it is and is not included, but it is simple enough to create. It just reports back the fields for sheet number and title.
  10. try the theatre row PIO https://www.verysmallgroup.com/vectorworks-plugins
  11. If only we could define the specific size of the frame. I use the GL to show scenic symbols and it is a huge PITA to get a uniform size when the GL might be refereeing multiple Viewports.
  12. Although Batch Render Ould use some love, use each camera to create a batch render job. Then use batch render to render them all
  13. well, the color temperature of the 'candles' is too cold
