[Symbols not showing in sheet layer viewports]

It may be that the container class is "none", but the objects making up the symbol are probably in another class that is hidden in your viewports.  Try editing the symbol and see what classes the objects are on - then turn those classes on in your viewport visibility.

This solved my issue, very grateful.

[Best Practices - Room / Space Tags]

I spoke to Juan of VW tech support. We figured out the room boundary needs to be turned on for the leader line to be visible.

I have the same question

[Nudge setting]

@Matt Overton That would be an nice feature for VW to add. It would also be nice not having to click into preferences to set the distance.

Thank you Matt for your response. That makes my life so much easier.

 

[Nudge setting]

I wish there is a way to set distances of nudge. It is handy to quickly move an object out of the way to work on something behind it and nudge the first object back knowing it is back to its original location.

Do you guys think by adding external GPU will help? I am using MacBook Pro Touchbar 2017 and is experiencing same slowness.

[Add line style option for dimension witness line]

It is drafting standard to show a centerline for a dimension witness line when measuring to the center of an object. I just think VW should make this available since it is so basic.

[Add fields to title block]

You need to add a field to the Titleblock record first. Select a Title Block Border and choose Edit Style from the Style dropdown. Go to the Project Data or Sheet Data pane and add a field using the Add button. Once its added, go to the Title Block pane and press the Edit Title Block Layout button. The easiest option here would be to drag copy an existing text object (note they are now labelled Text in Title Block) and change it Link Value to associate it with one of the new fields you created. Alternately you could create a new Text in Title Block object and use Link Value to associate it.

Thank you Kevin for your response. That's exactly what I was looking for. Wish VW would make the editing simpler. 

[Add fields to title block]

I am modifying from a standard title block to match my old title. However, I can't figure out how to add a new field to the title block. 

[Custom stairs railing problem]

I need to create  a riser at the middle of landing of a double L staircase, so I used custom stairs tool for that. While it looks correct in plan, the railing in 3D zig zags out of the stairs. 

 

Please let me know how to fix this problem.

 

Thank you all in advance.
