Be sure your libraries are up to date. Right click on the Premium Libraries and "Refresh" Do the same for the Vectorworks Libraries Make sure that your search is for everything, everywhere. I'm seeing several results for "piano" Note the little cloud and arrow in the bottom left corner of each symbol. This means that it's currently in the cloud and will need to download to use. HTH

Actually tried that but then had issues with colors and intensity. With some of the other comments, might give the clip cube another shot with a combo. Thanks

Thanks Tom, That sounds like another option.

Thanks Hans. Will give that a whirl and let you know. Part of my issue will be having everything in 3D but I knew that was comimg

Nice! Thanks. That's definitely a solution.

Client has asked for a drawing similar to the attached. It shows what appears to be a horizontal cross section of a plan in black and white with shadows for all objects. How does one accomplish this easily in Vectorworks?

@gmcintyre You have to "hover" around the edge of the drawing. Attempted to show in the attached. Questions? Scroll VW.mov

@zoomer Have never tried/used/selected the Use Symbol Geometry option. Never quite understood the reason/rationale. According to VW Help... Select Use Symbol Geometry and click Browse to select a door symbol. Click the Symbols selector. From the Resource Selector, double-click a different symbol to apply it. The symbol Name displays in the Door Settings dialog box and the preview is updated with the selected symbol. When a symbol is selected, all fields pertaining to the door’s geometry are disregarded; however, parametric values are still available for scheduling and reporting purposes only. By selecting the Use Symbol Geometry, the OIP values DO NOT adjust the PIO for Width, Height, Angle, etc.? And schedules display the OIP values? Talk about confusing. And I'm not seeing the symbols listed during a Purge.

@Clint Alderman Appears to be a windows only thing. Can you publish individual files and then combine until fixed?

Pretty sure it's a Windows thing only Bug. Not seeing that on the Mac side.

My bad. Thought this was providing the updater only, not the VW installer itself.

@Donald Wardlaw Did you try here... https://www.vectorworks.net/support/downloads/product-updates?version=2019

@Andy Broomell Flipped Symbols should behave like regular symbols. Thanks for pointing out what causes this. Seeing this behavior on a test file once the symbols are flipped. This feels like a bug. This should be on the wish list at a minimum

@Donald Wardlaw Current version... Vectorworks 2019-SP6-522773 Chinese characters? RUN AWAY! Hopefully the virus scan came up empty.
