  1. Hello Fellows

     

    In previous versions I configured two keyboard shortcuts to create a new designer layer and another to create a new class. In Vedtorworks 2019 I can't do the same.
    Not possible anymore?
    I just found the possibility of creating a shortcut to open the layer menu, but to directly create a new layer I didn't find the shape.
    Please how can I do this quickly and conveniently.

    Thanks.

    Not really.  VW doesn't have a unit of weight.  So it doesn't know that a kilogram is 1000 grams or how that's related to our antiquated pounds.

     

    So the weight information that is stored in all of the instruments is actually just text.

     

    But you can make your own record format that attaches to everything with a weight field in the same units as a real number instead of text and use that.

     

    Let me know if that doesn't make sense.  I have an example here somewhere I can dig up and clean up.

     

     

    I understand... :/
    If I create this record is it possible to calculate the total through Vwctorworks? o.O
    In my example it is easy to do in hand, however I am involved in a priojeto where this will become an inconvenience.:(
    If possible which way? Thank you in advance! :D

  3. Hey guys :D
    Is it possible to automatically calculate the total weight of a truss with Light Instruments and cables? o.O
    Example:
    I have a Truss line of 10 meters with 5 Varilites Spot 3000 and cables. I put on that truss two hoist. Is there any tool that gives me the automatic calculation of the weight of this set?
    Thanks a lot. ^_^
    And sorry for my bad English :|

    Check that you have the parts record attached and properly set to the part, and that there is only one Loci in the symbol. VW does not know what to do when it has more than one Loci in a lighting instrument and you rotate it or associate it with a Focus point.

    Nice!!:D

    I forgot to associate the body with the rest of the equipment. :(
    Thank you!:D

    Right click on the lighting object in your resource browser - Edit 3D component - deselect any selections - Object Info Window, click the "Data' tab - There should be a "part" and "lighting object info" or something along those lines. You can edit that info from there. Change channel numbers ect..

     

    Also available to access via > Spotlight drop down menu > Reports > Lighting Symbol Maintenance


    Nice!:D
    I had same problem >:( in edit my personal library and this metod resolved my problem.:)

    I selected and edited all symbols, and after this, edit data in Light Synbol Maintenance, now the synbols apears perfect in all data sistem: instrument Summary etc... :D

    Are you replacing the symbol using the change symbol dropdown in the edit dialogue box or are you replacing the instrument? You will need to replace the instrument for the instrument summary tool to change. (Spotlight menu/Replace Instruments)

     

    xD lol

    As I said... I am new user of the program and was using the wrong tool.:$
    Thank you very much!:D:D

  7. Hello folks! ;)

     

    In Vectorworks Spotlight, after changing a symbol using the command: replace with symbol.

    This symbol does not have its data updated in the summary tools. It appears as an unused device with a count equal to zero.

    Even making the switch in the options: use original; use substitute... 

    I'm doing something wrong, I'm a new user in the program :|

    Thanks to anyone who can help! ;)
