The Hamma

I wish that there was an option to make some objects that are hidden behind other objects to appear in rendered images even if the object it is behind is not transparent. See the attached image. PARTIAL FRAMING MODEL.pdf

Could the "BeginFloor" command be replaced with a simple extrude? If you ungroup the floor, it becomes a floor and a rectangle. At this time the floor can be rendered by setting the correct attributes.

Love the script but I do have a question. Do you know why the countertop does not have the correct texture in VW 2019

This modification corrects the issue but it seems to me that if the points are read from HCenter as inches then they should be passed to RegularPolygon as inches. HCenter(h,Px,Py); RegularPolygon((Px*25.4),(Py*25.4),(9*25.4),6,1);

Yes, I did try adding the unit to the script but that does not work either. The size and the location of the created polygon are still 1/25.4 scaled.

I have attached a file with two scripts in progress. It is a script that I was developing to replace circles with hexagons. The first version doesn't work as expected. It creates the hexagons but they are 1/25.40157 sized and location from the origin. I modified the script to multiply the X,Y coordinates by 24.40157 and the size. This places the hexagons in their proper location and size. It seems that the script is converting the units to mm from inches. If I set the drawing units to mm the first script works Script Error.vwx

Oh, how much joy it is to see that your file was backed up just before Vectorworks begins to not respond and you can just kill VectorWorks instead of waiting for the 20-30 minutes for it to come back to life.

Not responding all of the time. I will not be sending Vectorworks any more money if they do not get this fixed soon.

Have these been tested with VW 2019?

Thanks that was the issue.

I have created a test file (attached). It seems to me that it is rather slow to update the viewport when all that is being shown is a 2d component of the symbol. Am I doing something wrong? Test.vwx

Please add an overhead COILING door option to the door tool.

The 2018 version is just slow all around!! zooming in and out as well as rendering and rotating renderings. editing PIO's. etc.

Did you ever solve this issue, I have the same.

Does anyone know how to use this (FUNCTION SetDashStyleName)function? I would like to make a vectorscript that can change a dash style of a selected object to a predetermined dash style by name.
