So Vectorworks Support helped solve this straightaway ... Somehow I'd turned on 'Unified View' accidentally. It's turned off by default, but I think I'd clicked it on by accident. All back to normal now. Thanks for your help Tom and Jeff 👍👍

If it helps, this hopefully explains what is happening ... If I select walls that are on the first floor layer of the the model and switch them to the second floor, those walls appear in top plan I guess on the screen plane. I can force selct them, but nothing else. It feel like a bug. Will report back what Support say tomorrow.

Ah ok. Thanks Tom. Maybe the file uploaded weirdly. I was using coffee shop wifi at the time.

That's odd. It actually opens ok for me. And hasn't actually crashed (though Vectorworks is a little slow). I've attached a couple of screengrabs so you can see what I see.

Hi TomThanks for the reply. Where did you find that information? Any ideas how it might cause the issue I'm seeing? I'm talking to Vectorworks support tomorrow .. will post any solution here.

Hi Forum Hoping someone can help with this ... I'm using 2023. When I try to change the layer of any object, Vectorwork does something very odd to the plane the object is in. It feels like it moves the object to the screen plane, but actually it's more glitchy than that. Feels like an vectorworks error, rather operator error (though I've been wrong before!)Stage_5_stage_master.vwxStage_5_stage_master.vwx. At first I thought it was to do with the pdf i imported, but it actually happens to all objects. Any help would be really appreciated. Andy Stage_5_stage_master.vwx

Is anyone else having an issue when using Soft Goods? Either from the tool set or when 'converting object to soft goods'? After a few adjustments, Vectorworks 2022 freezes and I have to force quit. Also, another little bug I'm having is when I first open 2022, the menu bar isn't there. I have to close and reopen to make it appear. Just curious if anyone else is having these bugs? Cheers Andy

Thanks Michael. That worked. It was also the Lint Type was set to single rather than double that confused me. Thanks so much!

Hi all Wondering if someone can advise me? I'm using Spotlight 2021 and having a problem with the lighting pipe tool. It stuck at a fixed length of 4.537" for a reason I can't figure out. No mater what size pipe I try to draw, that's the length the pipes are stuck to being. And these tiny pipes don't look like the normal scaffold pipes ... just a tiny straight line with a couple of markers on them. Any advice would be really appreciated as I can figure out what I've clicked to makes his happen. Thanks and best wishes Andy Lowe

Thankyou from me too JToomey!! Not sure how I managed to turn perspective crops on though.

Hi everyone I've been using @barnes2000 brilliant Scissor Lift and Condor marionettes for a few years. Since upgrading to VW2021 I'm having a problem with them. I can import them into my drawing, but as soon as I try to adjust or rotate them, they disappear without trace. Sometimes they disappear slowly, piece by piece, but most often they just disappear from the whole file. Does anyone have any ideas if it's something I'm doing wrong, or is it just a glitch in VW2021? Andy
