  1. Also make sure you have ticked this box when exporting/publishing.
  2. Hello community, This one is long standing issue: 2D cut graphic in horizontal section vp with profile line on = profile line all over the place = mess Vectorworks please, please, provide option to turn off profile line altogether for stair's 2D cut graphic in HSVP until this get fixed. In fact, we would prefer not to include profile line in cut graphic at all. We are pretty OK with just clean 2D cut graphic when stair cutted in HSVP, no need to have profile line there. Profile line for vertical section is working fine and is needed. This is result when stair object cutted and profile line is on (separate cross sections): This one is really urgent! There is no other object causing this kind of issues when cut through in horizontal section viewport when profile line on in advanced settings ... and there is no easy fix for that either. What we do last 2-3 years we ungroup stair in top/plan view and add resulting clean 2D cut graphic to annotation space to overlay ill stair's graphic generated by viewport. And of course this procedure need to be done for all stairs in all plans! @Matt Panzer any information on possible fix coming soon? Thanks, Pavol
  3. Hi @heavy manners You can use 'Reconcile Notes...' menu command to do that. Try it out. Hope this helps.
  4. This one is great. It is definitely quickest way to deactivate all currently active TTB. Thanks @Nikolay Zhelyazkov for very handy tip!
  5. Hello, While data tags are really great and we deploy them wherever applicable we see these issues present when using them: 1. tagging spaces in section viewports - data tag is wrongly not seeing - not picking space objects that are actually cutted by cut plane of section viewport but instead only those not cutted but beyond cut plane. We saw on few occasions that there is small prompt provided to help chose from multiple overlapping legible objects (same as we have with coincident objects) but this prompt is not always there when there are multiple same spaces (for example) seen beyond cut plane ... 2. tagging objects (e.g. door/window and probably others) that are using own 'cut plane and display' settings (accessed through edit section in-place) are not seen by data tags. See attached screenshots. 3. we see that currently viewport styles are not really friends with data tags or this is is not fully fine-tuned yet - when unstyled viewport is converted to styled existing data tags in annotation disconnect from source object and reset to default vaules (we see this at least with tags for door/window and space objects ). We wanted to start to take advantage of new viewport styles but it seems that working with unstyled/styled viewport styles can trigger resset. Generally we see often disconnection of data tags from source objects for unknown reason and it is really pain to reasocciate them back one by one when there is a lot of windows/doors/spaces etc. We see it mainly happening in horizontal section viewports or regular section viewports. We normally place data tags only in annotation space. @Nikolay Zhelyazkov Would you have some clue what might be the issue or is there something we should be aware of? Thanks a lot. Pavol
  6. Thanks @Nikolay Zhelyazkov for your suggestion to use worksheet. We have tried that, but we found this unreliable as the change from true to false or other way around from within worksheet is not always transferred to actual title block border ... some are some not... Anyway, it would be really great to have one button to deactivate all currently active title block borders without need to go inside title block manager>Selected Sheets check all > deactivate and back in to activate those for current task.
  7. Hello, Is there a way to show today's date in worksheet cell with spreadsheet setup? We are using this functions: =FORMATFIELD('Title Block Project Data'; '...') to get some data from title block border ... but would be great if we could add today's date too .... to the header of the worksheet layout with list of drawings (database part) as a main part of worksheet. I guess it doesn't have to be connected to title block border data, but all we need to get today's date displayed + so that it automatically updates to correct date. Any help much appreciated.
  8. it's been like this already for good few years 🙁 ... at least that is our experience
  9. Hi Community, Is there some shortcut to deactivate all active title blocks in one file without going into Title block manager and select all sheets and then deactivate? Maybe @Nikolay Zhelyazkov do you have some tip - shortcut to quickly deactivate all presently active title blocks?
  10. Hi @Isaac Anderson This is what we got recently from tech support regarding issues we had with project sharing: Do not store your working file in dropbox, the working should never be in a folder that syncs across devices. Your working file, and any one's working file should be stored locally on their hard drive as that is their file and theirs alone. Storing the working file in the same location as the project file will cause issues, such as the ones you are seeing. Storing Vectorworks files on icloud drive has caused many problems in the past as icloud will often remove the files from the hard drive and keep them only in the cloud. I would suggest using dropbox or Vectorworks cloud services to store any workgroup / syncing folders. --- Each computer needs to make its own working file, you cannot share a working file between computers. Even if its you using the different computer the file is attached to the username of each computer. Your computer does have a local hard drive so I would highly recommend you store your working file there. Any service that requires syncing can break your working file. At that time we were storing every team members working file on dropbox, same location as project file. That is wrong. Maybe it can help you little. Pavol
  11. @Tom W. roof clipping is still not working in VW2024 SP3.1 and wasnt since SP2. We have also difficulty with roof faces components diseappering in sections, those that have rooflight (symbol) inserted. No fill attribute displayed! 😞
  12. Thanks @line-weight for putting this post together. Regarding structural member in horizontal section viewports we are using 2024 but look like missing 2D graphics hasn't been sorted even though there is more granular control over 2D graphic attributes...but I believe it only works for top/plan view...? I wonder why is it so when all this work went into structural member in last two software versions and it is still not ready for HSVP.....or am I missing something?
  13. STRONG YES!!! ... and please bring search field for all dialogues: - class/layer visibilities for saved views - import new classes/layers - section line instances (layer/viewport) - batch rename dialogue - ... 1000X PLS!!! 🙂
