I'm not sure which setting you mean?

 

The Color Shader

[Rendering glassy materials - dark edges]

_{Maybe change to a middle gray solid color?}

[New Plug-In Style from Unstyled Plug-In]

I also think a 'new' option should be in the tool bar.

[Polygons in hidden line]

Or trace and remodel. Or save as a symbol and add 2D components. 

[Door textures]

In the OPIP, with the door selected, go to settings and then classes and use a class to add the texture.

[Linking panorama 3D to each other]

And this has to be a part of a presentation?

[Linking panorama 3D to each other]

I'm a little unclear on this capability. Can I create panoramas of two different, adjacent rooms and then click from one room into another?

Let us know if this gets you there, or feel free to post a screenshot for additional guidance.

 

 

pretty much exactly this.

[Boolean Operations w. Data Visualization]

So, as I read this you want different types of hoists to be collected as long as they are over 1000 lbs. As opposed to selecting just a specific type of hoist?

 

I don't have the answer, but this seems a reasonable VE If not possible.

English please?

[Extrude along path question]

I'm unclear not he desired result, but the Profile may want to be rotated 90° in space?

[Reflection in rendering]

This is OpenGL? The reflections are the light gray squares? The circles are doodle to direct the eye towards the squares? What is the ceiling?

Sounds like GPU is irrelevant then? 

 

 

GPU helps with Vision, not Renderworks.

Any chance of a screenshot?

 

 

I'll see if I can dig up a render.

[Diffused Front for Videowall]

I’VE ADDED ‘FROSTED PLEXI’ PANELS IN FROM OF A VIDEO WALL OBJECT IN VECTORWORKS. IT DOES ADD render time, but worth it for the look. Class the objects for testing and turning on and off as needed.

 

sorry about the shouting there.

Hi, Peter, I know only just enough about this to be dangerous, but it's possible that having it saved on your local drive is causing the problem. If you look at "Save on" in the parameter table on the following page of help, you'll see some information about that. This may have nothing to do with it, but it could be step one of an investigation.

 

 

I tend to prefer Panorama over web view, but I process using VSS and then share links... I see other good advice above in terms of perspective views and setting up the export.

Is there a way to control what the Exported WEB View will show?

 

 

Can you post the link to the Web View?

[Spotlight Parameters: Share custom OIP 1]

sure, but i believe it would be most helpful to single out exactly which settings were potentially going to be saved. "Do you want to save "My Default-Kevin Allen?" rather than merely "do you want to change the changes made to "LightingDeviceParamsSavedSet.xml".

 

It would also be helpful if any or all of these settings could be saved in a more findable folder? I *think* i found one of my saved OIP parameters in Home > Library > Application Support > Vectorwor> 2020 > Plug-ins > Data? How about the Settings folder?

 

Yes, I hope that is what I was saying.

[Spotlight Parameters: Share custom OIP 1]

I would suggest that the default action would be for the prefs to save the settings, or at least have a pop-up ask me if I want to save the settings. 

[Spotlight Parameters: Share custom OIP 1]

I think what you are requesting is that if a user has saved the custom settings, that saved name should transfer with the file. This opens up a can of worms — what if the other user has named the setting “my default,” and you also have a setting names “my default”?  How do you know which one you’re using? I also don’t think I would want everyone’s custom settings to automatically save to my user folder. I would want to have to deliberately save the settings, which is basically how the system works now. 

 

I see this as a bug or a VE. The program identifies me in a user folder, so I assume, and I haven't dug into this, but if I ave settings "My Default," and I send a file to u=you and and you have used the same name, I would like the program to send that information to you as "My Default-Kevin Allen."

[Spotlight Parameters: Share custom OIP 1]

Those settings should be document specific. If you’ve opened his doc, they should be available.

@MartinFahrer I have seen a program where there is relief for the immediate future, contact VWX directly.
