    I don't know of any native VWX sites or many options.

    Pretty sure I have VE'd love for the workspace editor publicly and private over the years. I guess it's not sexy enough.
  3. Kevin Allen
    This is way too complicated for the average user. Computers are supposed to make the complex easier to deal with. Part of what makes Vectorworks is the ability customize.

    this seems be yet another reason the workspace editor needs love.

    something would have to give, either the space between the objects or the sizes of the objects themselves.
  6. Kevin Allen
    not sure that's possible. Think about the math.

    It would be ideal for Mac users to have the system spell checker and dictionary.

    Surface Array Command

    I sometimes start with a stock texture, but always modify.

    Can we crowd source a task document? There are a number of ideas in this thread (and others) about workflows and simplification. @markdd that probably need task documents created to communicate the right paths to the engineers. Serious Question, I think the users need to define their own needs.

    I've experimented with materials, but haven't, as yet, found them applicable to show business. I might have several different uses for plywood and/or MDF. Each with a different finish. That said, It would be nice to be able count sheets of plywood/MDF/laminate, as well as calculate paint.

    In theory that has been true for several versions, not in top/plan.

    another tool? Why on earth? I think rigging objects and hanging positions need to be combined. Gear needs weights and that should be included in the gear; lighting devices, speakers, screens, etc. Simplify.
  14. Kevin Allen
    you should be fine
  15. Kevin Allen
    Sounds like both are symbols. You have to make the new one into a lighting device. Use the convert to lighting device command. Not sure what you’re after, but you will add rendering time. Often a glow texture is most efficient.
  16. Kevin Allen
    I would suggest that these types of 'bases' need the same type of parts record used with lighting device and speakers. The nomenclature should be the same. @MrTemplate @Mark Aceto @C. Andrew Dunning @markdd
  17. Kevin Allen
    to elaborate and be less vaguebooking, There are now more 3D loci and records in the symbols offering greater control and precision placement of the speaker symbols. These would be great to have in lighting devices and likely other places where modeling complex rigging is required.

    Or in the Shader Render Settings

    this is simply brilliant and needs to everywhere in spotlight!

    I think I looked at that combo, again, earlier today. I don't think Large or Medium matters much here. I do not mind two rows. I do mind not being able to really move things around and/or resize.
  21. Kevin Allen
    I don't think so but you can have a second SLVP on top of the original with only the one class visible and the VP set to hidden line.

    For me, the problem was and to some extent remains, I wanted the text in the OIP to be larger. So,I have not been using compact mode.
  23. Kevin Allen
    I have the typographic controls all turned off. Unless there are advanced typesetting/page layout controls coming sometime soon, I see no need. I am very used to these controls being menu commands and available in the OIP. As such I have a huge amount of available space center screen.
  24. Kevin Allen
    Like Mac Window Toolbars, the arrangement of controls should be fully customizable.

    to me, A VWX Design Layer is like a sheet of vellum.
