[Box corner]

Hello, using VW2019.

 

I want to create a box corner HD44 with bold on connector Bob 100.

I understand it is not really possible with: insert truss tool.

 

The orginal drawing is from Sketsup see file 1. 

 

Now i draw a FD44-BLK and i want to put 4 x Bob100 a side.

With align is get the at the box corner .... but i has no snapping ?

I also dont get the 'round' in 3D.

 

Is there a easy way?

 

Next project is the 50cm truss with slimline doughty hook on it ...

I would like some advice

When i put a lighting device in the drawing and i get the 3 d presentation the hook is not correct on the truss. (see image)

What do i wrong?  Is there a simple way to solve this?

 

The truss is a hanging point. I use the lighting instrument tool.

 

 

Tnx.

Hello, using VW 2019

 

Is it possible to change the color of truss?

I tried it through, object info - customize, or pallette attributes, did nog succeed.

 

Its purpose is

1) that we have a lot of truss in black in stock

2) more clarity for the crew which pieces of truss are in which location in the drawing, preferabley linkec to the image in de legend.

 

Example: truss 2 meter is red, truss 3 meter is yellow ...

Hello @rvanhees,

 

I suppose you have your drawer written in some field of the Project/Sheet Data? If not, you could do this from Title Block Border Settings dialog, by adding new Project/Sheet Data field. After that, you have to simply edit the Title Block Graphics, add a text block object and link it to that field from the OIP.

 

Best Regards,

Hi, it works and it is as easy as I hoped. TNX.

Hello, new in VW.

 

I made a custum Title block, nice tool but i can not find how to link the name of the drawer (my name) to a text in title block.

 

By revision is it working, draw date i have done with drawing stamp but i hope there is another way, without the word draft.

I seen a video of 2017 but with a complex record make ... i hope it can be done easier.
