These are already existing objects you have to update them manually.

Thanks for the files @gkwilson. Now I remembered. The socket graphics have their pen attribute set to None. When exporting in BW Pen becomes black and fill white (I think). But since the socket graphics have no pen, they are left with just the white fill, which is blending in with the white background. So the fix is to edit your socket graphics and set their pen to solid.

Hello @Derricwest, - This is not possible from the circuit itself. We assume that if the circuit is not arrow it should be fairly easy to follow it to see what is connected on the other end. That is why only arrow circuits have this data displayed by default. - The data tag follows the tagged object when it gets moved. I suppose that the case with the circuit is that you reshape it, or you move the devices it is connecting, and this way you do not move the circuit itself but just modify its path, which is not followed by the data tag. Unfortunately, there is nothing that can be done to make this work at this time. - The information is always there, no matter what the circuit type is, it is just not displayed for non arrow circuits. If you use arrow circuits you can further customize the arrow text using the Edit Circuit Graphics... context menu. As for the number text, you can customize it only from the CC-Circuit-Number class. There you can change its color or text style, but you cannot change what it displays. Best Regards, Nikolay Zhelyazkov

Hello @stayathomedad, This is a known issue and it should be fixed in Update 3. Let us know if you still see it there or not. - Having this posted just here has a chance of it being missed by us. So it is always better to submit a bug so that it is certain that it will be seen. Sorry for the inconvenience, Nikolay Zhelyazkov

Hello @gkwilson, I remember answering to this same question but I cannot remember what was the problem exactly... Can you share a sample file showing the issue so that I can look into it? Thanks, Nikolay Zhelyazkov

- The easiest way is to hide the class "CC-Equipment-Text-MakeModel". Other thing you can do is deselect Show Text in the Equip Item OIP and then manually add linked text in the equipment item layout that just displays the name.

Hello @gkwilson, 1 - You should be able to change the text size by selecting the equipment item and then using the Text->Size menu options. 2 - If the name is too big and ends up overlapping the make/model text, the make/model text is omitted. So if you want to see it you have to reduce the size of the name text as described in 1 3 - You can create a worksheet report of equipment items that have the desired rack id, see the image below: Best Regards, Nikolay Zhelyazkov

You can change the snap grid size, but you should be very careful with this, because it also affects the scaling of newly imported ConnectCAD symbols. So if you change this and import new symbols they will be with different scale than the already imported symbols that you have.

Hello @gkwilson, The texts in the symbols are using the link text to record functionality (accessible from menu commands) which is different than the Linked Text OIP functionality, available from the layout of the ConnectCAD objects. You can double click a device to enter its layout and there you will see the options in the text object's OIP. If you want to reuse this you can save your device as a symbol or you can make these changes to the device in the 'Basic Device' symbol, which is used as a template for newly created devices from the device tool, device builder, etc. Let me know if this helps.

Hello @fredh, Which version of Vectorworks are you using? Can you share a sample file or a screen recording showing the issue? Best Regards, Nikolay Zhelyazkov

Hello @gkwilson, The ConnectCAD objects get their symbols scaled by the Snap Grid settings (or the scaling in ConnectCAD Settings dialog if you are using VW 2025). If your projects have different snap grid setting set you will see similar scaling issues. One way to fix this is to use the same snap grid in your projects. Another way to fix this is to delete all ConnectCAD symbols in your active file and then reset your ConnectCAD objects. The objects will then automatically reimport the missing symbols and scale them during the import. Let me know if this helps. Best Regards, Nikolay Zhelyazkov

Hello @SAmmerman, The exploding is intentional because the equipment item has the option to rotate in 3D, which requires hybrid symbols to be exploded so that only their 3D parts are rotated. This should happen only with hybrid symbols. Best Regards, Nikolay Zhelyazkov

Hello @André Rotgans, Currently it is not possible to change the order of the numbering of the rack units. FYI @Conrad Preen Best Regards, Nikolay Zhelyazkov

Hello @Pat Stanford, Yes, you are correct! 🙂 @Alex Ashley The scaling is applied to the symbols that the ConnectCAD objects use. It is applied when the symbols get imported in the active file. Once applied it remains the same. If you want to use different scaling you can delete the symbols and the ConnectCAD objects that use them will reimport them in the active file on their next reset with the correct scale. Let me know if this helps. Best Regards, Nikolay Zhelyazkov
