  1. How and why do people use 3ds files in Vectorworks?
  2. Hi All, I have attached a screenshot of me trying to move a floor plan. I have unlocked it and grouped/ungrouped but will not move all elements. It only moved part of plan and I don't know why? Any suggestions please?
  3. Hans when you modify dos you import an image into the Renderworks style?
  4. OK can anyone tell me how I set a background in VW. Do I do it in Design Layer or in Viewport and how does it work. Do I import into extruded rectangle? Thanks, Ashling
  5. Hi everyone, just wondering am I correct in thinking, when using Helicon Light, that you create new viewport and make changes there as opposed to the Design Layer? Can anyone help me on this please? Thanks, Ashling
  6. I was just wondering how people title their drawings and updated drawings for reference? DO you call them 1, 2, 3 and date them or is there some VW Layout I am not familiar with? I guess similar to architects? Thanks, Ashling

  10. Tips please on calculating Circle Radius and Arc Length with dimensions. See file attached this is what I calculated but very unsure and need to be accurate as its a stage we are building with Baluster glass panels to stop from falling. ??

  13. Kevin so from an advanced VW'er can you tell me the best process please. Just need direction.
  14. Wow that is good work. I am very far from that standard right now but hoping to get there.
  15. Kevin my aim is to give exact dimensions to build. Also to indicate how it should look when complete.
  16. Yes Kevin I do, I just cannot get a good view of this model when in 3d. I am not used to lighting effects and is very dark shades.
  17. Jim its actually front of a marquee. and yes i was planning on elevations and sections.
  18. Hey everyone, Apologies i am finding it difficult to get my head around setting up plans for construction using dimensions and angles. The company does not have a standard for this so creating myself. Hope I am making myself clear but what way would you present final plans with exact dimensions to give to carpenters for construction?
  19. Brilliant Andy thank you. Appreciate the detailed instructions. Ashling
  20. the boss referred to rounded corners as quadrants so figured out. Thanks for help.
  21. OK I have to dimension counters, Pods, and stage with backdrop for construction. Does anyone have tips or examples of dimensioning themselves? Obviously has to be accurate. Thanks.
  22. When I create new viewport of 2d structure dimensions, it it huge in my sheet layers. When I try to scale down the dimensions all change. How can I get it to fit the page. Need to print out so carpenters can make structure.
  23. This is the 2 d drawing of the 3d I need to create. I took a screenshot of it.
