Glad you found the solution. Though I must say that the outline numerical fonts for the fractional display options have got to go!

Haven't gotten into the 2021 Benchmark tool yet so this is only a guess: File > Document Settings > Units and make the appropriate selection. HTH.

I might as well add my home brew solution 😳...

I might as well throw in my solution...

First am I assume that the drawing on which you are working does not contain any imported .dwg CAD objects or files. (This can result in all sorts of arrow weirdness). So the following is my solution to the most simple possibility... - With nothing selected (click in a blank area of the drawing to be certain) check the Attributes pallet and make sure neither of the two arrow markers are selected. If one was selected then deselect it and drawing from that point on any new lines or arcs will be without arrows. - If you have a large number of existing lines or arcs with arrows to deal with I suggest using the select similar tool (looks like a magic wand) and in the tool's preferences deselect all the boxes excepting the 2 Line End Marker options . Now click on one line or arc with the Select Similar tool which should then select all lines or arcs that have arrows. With all of the objects still selected, deselect the arrow in the Attributes pallet and your done. Hope this helps.

I also print exclusively (well almost) via the publish>pdf route and find it meets my needs with clients, contractors, printing services and now, as a new requirement, for building permit filings.

@Phil21 only guessing but what OS version are you using? VW 2016 is only supported by the following: https://www.vectorworks.net/sysreq?version=2016

I can't address the apparent Autosave problem but noticed your signature says you are using VW 2015 on OS10.11.2. Per the following link VW2105 tops out with OS10.10. Not sure if it is related to your problem but perhaps worth while looking onto? https://www.vectorworks.net/sysreq?version=2015

I could be wrong but I shouldn't there would be a similar function in the Windows Vectorworks drop down menu?

Yes @P Retondo it appears tp be a "Macthang" (to quote my Windows loving brother-in -law). 😏

I also use "Use Application Window" as a matter of course. A related strategy that I employ when moving tp other applications is: Vectorworks > Hide Current (command-H) to dismiss the active Vectorworks window without closing the program (or drawing tabs for that matter). I've assigned it to a key on my trackball and use it all the time.

@cberg thanks for the suggestion . I frankly have only infrequently used split screen but will definitely give it a try.

Easiest when the spam is still in the can.

Exactly.
