  1. Can there be a basic function [in this case Column 'A' x a fixed percentage (15%) into Column 'B'] added to a Worksheet?
  2. Can you set a default version for files to open in? Mine defaults to 2023 no matter what version I'm working in... and I don't think it's always been that way. I know I could/should go through File>Open>Etc., but especially during meetings I'd prefer to double-click files as needed. On a Mac if it's relevant.
  3. This has thread has been hugely informative... I hope for those who commented and spectated as well. Thanks all for the input.
  4. Thanks both. And I appreciate all that. Some projects (studios) I'm asked to do it always, and others it's never ever mentioned. And no, it's not a time concern. Anyways. Just curious. Thanks again
  5. What are some of the uses for naming a viewport?
  6. Much appreciated, Zoomer. I'm sure there's technical reasons beyond my understanding that result in this issue. And I've figured out a couple workarounds; ie sometimes I just need to make some benign edit (one instance that tends to work is to cut and then paste in place a portion of the polyline I'm working on) for things to stop twitching.
  7. I've noticed this previously (may even have commented on it), but as I'm drafting more details recently the frequency that lines and polygons that 'glitch' when zoomed in tight is really becoming an issue with my work. Is this known/common? Any solutions? Thanks Screen Recording 2023-09-16 at 2.02.12 PM.mov
  8. Thanks for the input E|FA Well I just realized the ones I'm working on are actually on a design layer. But you can select them in annotations and they highlight and are visible in the OIP. In hindsight I've seen this before, but it didn't cross my mind. The dimension string for them is not visible on all sheets, but I'm guessing it's a class management issue.
  9. I'm working on a project with several sheet layers that have grid lines located in the annotations. I some how deleted a set from a sheet. I tried copying them from another sheet's annotations and pasting them on the annotations where they're missing, but keep getting the error message: "Grind lines cannot be placed in this container." I could redraft them, but if someone knows I'm doing something incorrectly, I'd appreciate the feedback. Thanks
  10. Thanks, BCD... your answer definitely helped. Yes shorter, I picked up on. Thanks for the input though. And Tom, that's what I was aiming for... ending up with one wall. It's not really an issue, but this is the type of question I usually don't inquire about and then learn there's a tool or trick I could've been using along.
  11. Is there a way to connect two walls at their ends?
  12. Hey. Can someone please direct me to the page on the customer portal website to download previous versions (ie. 2022) with a subscription license... I did this not too long ago, but can't seem to find it. Thanks
  13. Hey Adrian, Somehow missed this arrive. I'll reach out with a direct message now.
  14. Again, this was a huge help guys... still learning and developing my 3D skills. Don't know how I'd manage without this type of support. Thanks!
  15. Thanks, Tom. I have a lot to learn about life in a 3D world and working through the nuance of it all.
  16. Am I wrong or is/was there a time that you could see the version of a back saved file via the 'Get Info' feature on a Mac? I know when I export the file to an earlier version (such as the attached) VWX generates that versions' date in the file name; such as the attached v2018 file. Maybe someone can confirm that file is indeed a v2018 file... I've had this questioned recently. Thanks y'all LABELS v2018.vwx
  17. Thanks for the quick reply. Ya know I tried that previously though (did you mean "uncheck" or am I getting confused?) and it didn't seem to work. I tried it with a stock railing symbol just now, and it worked perfectly. Maybe it's because I created a custom railing symbol. I'm attaching both railings in case you or someone else is curious. RAILING - 2.vwx
  18. If I understand correctly, seperate 3D railings with different slopes can not be connected/joined? If that's the case, I'd like to remove one or both posts at a given location as a workaround. Is this possible? As a test I did center posts from different segments, but as expected it's just not a clean fix (see attached). And yes, I imagine there's a better approach, but I landed on this one and only want a slightly cleaner result.
  19. Super informative, Tom. Very helpful. I will say I'm clear on the walls having ext vs int... it's still happened though, regarding sill being inverted. I closed out the file last night with some of the windows still appearing as if they needed to be tweaked yet again. Opened the file just now and most all of them 'corrected' (for lack of better term) on their own. Just graphical perhaps. Maybe it's just my hardware; running a MacBook Pro 2016 with all the upgrades. Overdue for a new one. And though I've been hesitant to delete my Vwx and then re-download the program, it's helped with graphic issues and bugs in the past. Apologies going off topic some, but I've had wonky issues w/ VWX consistently for ~3 years. It must be user error. Anyways, thanks again.
  20. Hey y'all. I'm fairly new to adjusting window to this level of detail. But I spent some time figuring out several adjustments to items including the sash location in the wall, creating a brick sill to match exiting window, and and adding an extension jamb. In this clip I'm demonstrating what happens when I duplicate or add a new window into a wall. All I'm doing here is copying/dragging, and the second duplication is a copy and paste. Then I show a window inserted into the wall... and sometimes the sill may even flip to the interior of some locations, while the window sash is properly oriented. Each of these actions changes the window setting/look in both 2D and 3D. Am I doing something wrong? Maybe just a bug? Note I'm on 2023 working with a new file and I'm using a generic wall. Thanks. *Edit: These changes also occur when I edit a window in anyway; as basic as the overall dimensions. Screen Recording 2023-04-11 at 2.32.14 PM.mov
  21. I've been down this road before, but can't figure why certain walls are showing 0'-0" height verses say an 8'-0" height. It seems wall type specific. Any input is appreciated.Wall Height.vwx
