[Countersink Holes]

Hello All -

I?m using some flat head machine screws to hold some boards together and I would like to create a countersink hole. It seems pretty straight forward, but I can't seem to figure out how to create a tapered extrude to cut the hole.

Screw is:

.477" Diameter Head Tapers at 85? for .133" to 1/4" Diameter, and then the rest of the screw ...

thoughts?

[3D Connexion and Vectorworks]

Can someone who does have VectorWorks and the Space Navigator functioning happily post up an importable configuration file?

Thank you

[TV Object - Render Frame in Black?]

ah - this is the spotlight plug-in. Else it would be easy

The "Television" tool

[TV Object - Render Frame in Black?]

Thanks Kevin,

Wouldn't the PlasCase texture then be in my Document's resources? I don't see it there.

Trying some of the others. Please advise.

[TV Object - Render Frame in Black?]

I'm hoping this is very simple.

I have a bunch of TV objects - but the cases keep rendering in Gray. For the life of me, I can't figure how to get the cases to render in the black plastic they are made out of??

thanks in advance

[Curved LED with VS4]

Our wall is 60'w x 13' tall - it would be a killer to process all those cutouts! LOL!

[Curved LED with VS4]

Thanks - Just posted the low-Res LED question to the board.

No curved option on the tool is a drag.

thanks!

[Rendering Low-Res LED Walls]

Trying to give the client the correct visual for our concept ...

We have an 18mm background screen and a 5mm HD Content Screen which floats in front.

I want to show the pixel density difference between the two products.

I've been killing myself trying different masks, but nothing seems to work out correctly.

Does anyone have a way to render Low-Res LED walls?

Thanks

[Event?Theatre Seating -- Is there ANY Information on this?]

Agreed -

this tool could be useful - but is way to clunky.

Why not have the ability to build in aisles so you can set your general seating area and get a seat count?

seems like many a throw in on the "not worth it" spotlight package. Really I feel I payed for some kind of useful, but fairly half-baked plug-ins.

[3d Controller for Mac ?]

I was thinking of upgrading my input devices for mac. Was looking at a 3D Controller like the Space Navigator

Does anyone have any experience with this and VectorWorks?

My stacked layers command is greyed out in my current document. Any idea why?

[Textures for door parts?]

Hmm.. Why can't I get the mapping preferences for the door object? I need to adjust the scale of the map used.

On the class leval, you can't adjust the map either ..

[Extrude along path]

Got it! Thank you!

[Extrude along path]

Trying out the help, thank you ..

Actually having problems finding where to "double click" the extrude along path ..

[Extrude along path]

Hi

I'm trying to extrude along a path. However, when I extrude, the center of the object is centered to the path, and I need the edge along the path.

As a solution, I have offset the path 1/2 the width of the object to be extruded. This in theory should put the edge of the extrusoin at the edge of the path I need.

However, I am getting an error message when trying to extrude along the offset path?

Please see the file here .. http://www.aaaeventservices.com/test.mcd

thank you,

[VW Crashes everytime I touch the menu]

Did you do the full un-install, delete reg, re-install or just delete the registeries and run the program?

Thanks
