The Hamma

I want an option to turn of the autoincrementing numbers for the Revision Bubble Tool. We may have many revision bubbles on a page that are all the same revision number.

I have started to create some models for 3D printing and in most cases the "Very High" setting when converting to STL or Meshes is sufficent but in the case of a large rounded surface the facets are noticable in my prints. I would like the option to increase the number of facets to above "Very High" in some cases. Maybe a 3D Power Pack command.

Did you ever figure this out?

I don't know how long this has been there but there is an option to filter your callout list and it works like a search option See database filter below.

You are welcome, I am glad it helped! Anyone else looking for the tutorial they can find it here -> Of course, I have all 5,000 keynotes memorized, don't you? I wish! Unfortunately, as you said there is no search option so I open the keynote.txt file with Notepad++ and use it to search for the keynote. I have requested that feature to be added. That is a good way to do that. I have them in division 01 10 00 SUMMARY. You can also create another database but you would have to switch back and forth, but the keynote legend would show both keynote databases in the same legend.

My way would be to use the clip cube and create section veiwports from the faces of the clip cube. If you limit the distance that a section cuts it will elimnate any objects behind the object in question. Highlight the object you wish to view and then turn on the clip cube function. Choose the face with the select tool and right click to choose the create section viewport.

My most ridiculous data visualization set yet to overcome the missing option.

There is an option to save viewport cache but it only saves viewports on sheets. Please add another option to save Design Layer Viewports Cache.

Novabench. My 3090 FE performace gets a lower score than the 3080 TI on the fastest machine because the processor and chipset is faster on the faster machine, and the 3080 TI on the last machine score is the lowest of them all. Also, The only thing that takes a long time to process in Vectorworks is renderings which affects publishing speed as well. simply moving throught the drawing on any of the machines is rather quick but the redering and publishing time is twice as fast on the fastest machine as compared to the next and four times slower on the last machine. Vectorworks list the time to render after processing a render.

Upgrade you CPU and Motherboard if you can. I have three computers with three different processors and two different graphic cards and the fastest CPU wins in all cases. The graphics card performance is greatly affected by the CPU performance. The three Windows 10 builds Fastest running Vectorworks Intel Core i9-12900KF Desktop Processor 16 (8P+8E) Cores up to 5.2 GHz Nvidia 3080 TI FE 32 Gigs Ram DDR4 2400 samsung pro 980 2tb Next Intel(R) Core i9-10900K Desktop Processor 10 Cores @ 3.70GHz Nvidia 3090 FE 64 Gigs Ram DDR4 2400 samsung pro 980 2tb Last Intel Core i7-7700K Quad-Core 4.2 GHz Nvidia 3080 TI FE 32 Gigs Ram DDR4 2400 samsung pro 980 2tb

Please add the option to the Class-Based Objects to use a class prefix as a filter rather than the full name of the class. So instead of having to add every class that has 1_Exist, 2_Demo, 3_New as a prefix I could just define the prefix and it would add every prefixed class.

Yes Yes this was my work around for the time being. LOL And no we don't use by class exclusively enough to use the class overrides to make this work.

I need a way to overide all lineweights in a viewport to one lineweight. The veiwport advanced settings only let you scale lineweight which is good but there are many times that I would like to export a simple line drawing without different lineweights. Data Visualization should work great for this but it missing the switch to modify linewieghts if you retain original pen. If there was an option here I could retain linetypes but change lineweights.

Everytime I approch 24 gigs of ram usage in Vectorworks it slows down. Is there a limit? I have 64 gigs of ram specifically for Vectorworks but I am unable to utilize it?

Thought about it LOL! I don't think it would have many less lines of code.

Awesome thanks. I added a few lines to the script to create the record in the file if it does not exist. Procedure MarkOverriddenDims; {May 27, 2022} {©2022 Patrick Stanford pat@coviana.com} {Licensed under the GNU Lesser General Public License} {No Warranty Expressed of Implied. Use at your own risk.} {Object Variable 6 indicates if a Dimension has the Show Dim Value} {Check box checked. If true it means that the dim value is showing} {False means it is not showing.} {This script runs looks at every Dim in the document and deletes a Record} {from those that have Show Dim Value checked and adds the Record} {to those that have it unchecked.} {If you don't ResetObject on each Dim, a Data Visualization} {will not see the correct Record attached/detached value.} Procedure Execute(Hd1:Handle); BEGIN If GetObjectVariableBoolean(Hd1,6) Then DelRecord(Hd1,'OverriddenDim') Else Record(Hd1,'OverriddenDim'); ResetObject(Hd1); End; BEGIN if GetObject('OverriddenDim') = NIL THEN; BEGIN NewField('OverriddenDim', 'Overridden', 'TRUE', 4, 0); END; ForEachObject(Execute, (INSYMBOL & INOBJECT & INVIEWPORT & (T=DIMENSION))); End; Run(MarkOverriddenDims);

I think this would work best for my needs then I could either select items with the record or display them with Data Visualization. Which script command gives you the status of the Show Dim Value Checkbox?

Yes Please

Yes please!

In Revit you can draw a 3D object with constraints. This model then becomes a dynamic model (symbol) that can change based on the parameters given in the OIP. Very similar to what we can do with PIO but much simpler to make and control.

Thanks, I was able to resize the message dialog manualy but only after I commented out the "ClrMessage" command at the end. Made a quick script to fix, LOL. message('Move and Resize this dialog box as desired. Close when done.');

Does anyone know how to change the size of a script message. I am unable to edit it while the script is running and it is taking up to much area. It covers a quarter of the drawing.

Is you door in symbol or a group?

When I add a filter color to a image texture and export to lumion the color does export. I would like to have the option to apply the filter color to the image when exporting to Lumion

Hear is a texture I created for PEMB insulation. PEMB Inulation.vwx
