  1. Hi Vellum, If you use the space tool you can use it to create a polyline, or if you for example create a shape, you can then right click on that shape and go to 'Create object from shape' and you have the SPACE there, then is just select the right label etc. EDIT: Also on 2024, you don't need to use the formulas above, you can now do this in a very easy way with the dynamic text options. Now in 2024 with the way the space tool works in conjunction with the data tags inside the data tag you can assign any text box to whatever measurement you need the last one I've done had sqm, sqft and acres all coming from the same space. After doing all this just don't forget to press the ADD or REPLACE to definition or it won't be added and won't work! (done this so many times myself and then scratching my head for hours why it wasn't working)
  2. Did you had an M1 or M2 Macbook pro to compare the performance within them ?
  3. Pat have you tried to use any Twinmotion/Enscape features like path tracer and so on, to use those newly RT Cores?
  4. I'm using Sonoma, but i haven't found this zoom issue you found, could you tell me how to replicate it?
  5. Hi all, I've got my iMac updated and a new user created and now I have the same issue, as when I try to import some textures it gives me the same error, but with a symbol it doesn't. On my previous User I can do everything without any issues, so I'm thinking this is a User related thing that I might be missing... I've tried changing the permissions of the main folder to everyone with Read & Write permissions and still nothing, any other solutions I can try please? Note: I've our IT team also looking into this. Edit: I have this issue on Both 2023 and 2024 Edit 2: All Sorted, the folders were actually missing my new user in the permissions, I've added it and it worked fine.
  6. I've just installed Sonoma on my machine and will be testing, is there anything priority to test? I'm using an M1 Pro MacBook 16"
  7. I need to give it a deeper look into this options, from what you're saying makes it easier to change. Thanks 🙂
  8. You set all your slab/walls in materials now? And add all the information in the material settings? Would you be able to share an example?
  9. Hi Tom, Many thanks for this I will try, the WS is for Wall Style I'm guessing? if it's for a slab would it be SS ?
  10. Hi all, I'm having a hard time figuring out how to obtain an automatic reading from the Wall/Slab - Components name so I could have an automatic populated Graphical Legend. If i create a dynamic text and go to select IfcSlab - COBie_Component (only shows InstallationDate; WarrantyStartDate; TagNumber; AssetIdentifier) but these are all to be filled in the DATA tab in the OIP On the https://developer.vectorworks.net/index.php/Worksheet_Functions it seems there's a way to obtain this name but I cannot seem to manage the right way to use it; # return component name ObjectData('component', 'Name') # core compoent ObjectData('component', 'Name', 2) # component with index = 2 The idea that I was trying to do was this: Any ideas? Or if anyone is doing this sort of Schedule how are you doing it?
  11. If the store is to remain free, indeed I agree that the most valuable asset from VW is still present... Yeah in posts even though is on a single Section of the forum it usually disappears quite quickly, the search function helps but needs people to write the right information on the post/title to help in the search, and a store can organise everything with filters...
  12. The issue with using the hardware tool in the doors there's the high probability of giving the wrong images/design of the hardware itself, as these are quite limited and if I edit a few of them to look approximate might do the trick. So basically I've tried to do is on the door data and window data I'll use one of the USER FIELDs to write SET X and write a text box or a Schedule with the SETs information that way the manufacturers can relate the information of which door/window uses which set... Hope I made sense on this explanation!
  13. I've found a few possible ways of doing this I was more asking for ideas on how other people is doing it, as someone might have got a quicker and easier way of doing, we don't do many of these schedules, and someone that often does it will have a much better perspective/experience. Although if that shop is coming I definitely can imagine people only putting it in there to be purchased, even I can think of a few ways of doing this and who knows if it's profitable or not to do it, but with this I feel that the community will lose one of its best features, the helping hand...
  14. Hi everyone! Does anyone have created an ironmongery schedule for doors and windows and can share how you've made them? I was thinking on creating Reports and use them to attach to the doors and then pull this information to the graphical legend, but open to ideas/suggestions.
