  1. - You can place a symbol in the equipment item layout and then edit that symbol. Every instance of the symbol will be updated when you edit it. Let me know if this helps.
  2. - Yes, I was able to narrow this down and have a fix prepared for the crash. Still, I do not recommend using DataTagField inside of data tags because it can call back the data tag and cause endless loops. For what you are trying to achieve I would recommend using a custom record instead of the second text field in the data tag and read from the record directly, which will be much faster and will not cause recursive calls to the data tag.
  3. Hello @The Hamma, What you are doing here is quite dangerous and the crash that appeared confirms this. This is crashing because in the script you rotate the data tag and reset it, which then loops back to the script execution from the data tag reset and ends up in an endless loop that causes a crash. Not really sure if we can do anything about it because you are forcing this endless loop from the script. We will analyze it to see if anything can be done. Best Regards, Nikolay Zhelyazkov
  4. - Yes, once the ConnectCAD symbols are imported they get scaled to match the snap grid and will not change anymore if you change the snap grid.
  5. Hello @Brett K, @Elite Exhibits, If you can share test files and screen recordings showing these issues we will be able to look into them and try to find out what is going on. Best Regards, Nikolay Zhelyazkov
  6. Hello @Seth Moak, Check if the layer scale is the same and if the snap grid is the same? These could cause such scaling issues. If you can attach a sample file showing the issue - both the source layer and the result layer, we will be able to look into it too. Best Regards, Nikolay Zhelyazkov
  7. @Rabbit Abbott try this, Edit the data tag style 'CC Home Run Cabling Tag' and/or 'CC Cabling Tag'. Enter the tag's layout and open 'Define Tag Field' for the text in there. Then, change the formula to read from 'Cable IDs' instead of 'Summary'. Then when you create cabling sheet, the created data tags sill report the cable numbers of the circuits that go through the cable paths. If I understood you correctly this is what you want to achieve?
  8. These commands are creating viewports and attaching some additional records to the cable paths and adding data tags that show the values from these records. You can add custom fields to these records and make the data tag show them instead.
  9. - I do not think that this is possible, at least I do not know how to get this done.
  10. Hello @Brian Nitz, You can add linked texts in your device by double clicking on it and creating text objects and selecting linked text in the bottom of the OIP. These texts can display data from attached records. Is this what you are looking for? Best Regards, Nikolay Zhelyazkov
  11. Hello @avdoxa123, As a workaround for now you can try to first specify the category/type, and then search for make/model. We will look into this and see what could be done. Best Regards, Nikolay Zhelyazkov
  12. Hello @Edward Carlson, Can you please share a sample file showing this so that we can look into it? I have tried this in VW 2024 and it seems to work fine. Best Regards, Nikolay Zhelyazkov
  13. Hello @btgroves, Thanks for reporting. I will log a bug about this and we will work on a fix. Best Regards, Nikolay Zhelyazkov
  14. Hello @scobb, - Double click on the panel layout object to enter it and edit its panel connectors directly. - It is not possible to customize the graphics of the created schematic device at this time. As for linking the panel to a custom device, this is possible but the device must be of the same device type. Then you can select the device from the OIP of the panel layout. Best Regards, Nikolay Zhelyazkov
  15. - Yes. But recalculate is different than redraw. I think that there should be a script that I have made somewhere in the forum that automates the nudging up and down which you can use. Actually, I think I found it, so you can try it. MoveCircuits.vwx
