In the Navigation palette select "Show. snap. modify others" from the drop down menu

maybe there are several VEs here? a) better import and translation. b) referencing.
-
Is it possible to reference this type of file?

Although there are exceptions to every rule, an 'accessory' modifies the beam of light. a C-Clamp, base, "T," sidearm, trunion or other 'iron' is about mounting or rigging.

could be a ratline reference, much like Adobe InDesign

This is my highest priority and I know many colleagues who feel the same way.

The only thing I can think of is that 'styles' were added to the Drawing Label tool a year or so ago. That has greatly simplified my workflow.

If the view in the cell is set to top plan, that will likely only showing hybrid. IIRC, that is what I have several legends making up one. I have a VE in place that the view and visibility should be cell specific.

I just did something similar to what you are trying to achieve, but everything was a symbol. The symbols did not necessarily have a record attached. I am not recalling if they were all hybrid or a mix of hybrid and 3D.
It was an imperfect process, and I think my graphic legends each wound up as several graphic legends grouped together. Different visibilities in each legend.It was trial and error and I didn't document the process.
-
are the solids symbols? I think everything needs to be a symbol or have a record attached.

It would be great to have a way to tell if a file had been copy/pasted from another or if pieces (like lighting instruments) had been pasted straight in.
I don't remember the names, but a set designer was teaching a set design class somewhere. A student turned in their design for some show.The teacher praised the design at length, then added a message about when stealing a design off of the internet, it is best NOT to steal teacher's design.

does it render in FQR?

One aspect which has not come up is the difference that I would expect between a laser printer, a cheap inkjet and a plotter.

Possibly. I haven’t printed from VWX in many many years.

Printing from PDF os best practice. Most printers/drivers understand WHAT DF. They do not necessarily understand vwx. or other programs.

I think you would need to create a symbol for every sheet layer. It's possible. Maybe?
well, the section viewport links to the drawing label object. Reference Markers can also link to Drawing Labels (although that is a process) ideally I would think the worksheet would link to the title block objects.
-
I use the hyperlink tool to reference product specs, but that seems quite a process for a table of contents. Hoping for a setting...
-
I use a stock worksheet that comes with designer to create an index of drawings. The Worksheet pulls sheet titles and sheet numbers from Title Block Objects.
Can that be made interactive, so that a reader using a PDF file can click on the sheet number or the sheet title and be sent to the page?

This is the key. I wouldn't underestimate this change. I've seen hints of this already starting to happen in the beta cycle; a willingness to hold back and get features right before pushing them out. And now they don't have to wait until the following year to push them out.
I hope so, but assumes the file format stays the same for a long time. Photoshop has been able to make this work.

My problem with this subscription model is that if you do work, and you stop subscribing, you lose access to that work the moment your subscription expires. You have lost all of that work. How can that possibly be attractive to possible new users. Did I get that wrong?
While I am not a fan of subscriptions, I see they are where software licenses are going. I have been paying monthly Vig to Adobe for years. That said, what I heard Juan say last night was that if you have a perpetual license, that is not going away. If you have service select, the program is essentially the same. If you have b other and stop paying the Service Select, you still have the license.
I assume that at some point, the OS may not run someone's old version, but that isn't new.
With Adobe, if you stop paying the Vig, you're sunk opening files unless other Apps open and translate. That's possible with some file formats.

but I have them on their own dedicated design layer so I can disable them easily.
I was also going to suggest one per deign layer, but that could be unwieldy.

While selecting a viewport, check out your visualization palette
would you do this via the Visualization Palette, or by selecting what class is visible in the Viewport using the OIP with the Viewport selected? I would think the latter.
