Sneaky

Thank you

Copy -

So each referenced viewport is its own individual thing.
The trick is to duplicate the viewport of "P" and on different "A" layers as you need them.

Thank you

Hi -- I am referencing Part "P" into Assembly "A"

I have classes / layers in "P" that I want to hide / show in different viewports in "A".

How do I go about this ?

When I go to the "Layers" or "Classes" visabilites in the Viewport dialogue box - I don't see the referenced layers / classes. Only the local ones.

I don't want to control from the referenced viewport object of "P" - as I don't want it to be for ALL viewports in "A".

Hope this makes sense

Thanks!

Yes - I've noticed a definite improvement

Which fly mode are people liking ?

I find that everything works fine when using 3Dconnexion's own "trainer" software. All perfectly smooth and as it should be so it seems unlikely there's a hardware problem. (Does the same apply to the CADmouse?)

The problem seems to come in its interaction with VW, somehow.

100% - if it worked in VectorWorks like the space Navigator does in the demo software, it would be a dream.

It's pretty much why I purchased in the first place!

But I am struggling to get it to work well with Vectorworks. I set it up as per these settings

http://kbase.vectorworks.net/questions/1173/3Dconnexion+SpaceNavigator+-+Recommended+Configuration+-+(Mac+OS+X)

Does anyone have a configuration that is working well on Mac with VectorWorks 2017?

Can you export your config file ?

I'm trying all permutations again - and getting frustrated (again!)

thank you

Pretty Great work - IMHO

I apologize for any circular questioning ..

This brings me to a question I posted on another thread ... Is there a comprehensive list of functions that can be called out in a worksheet?

- the only lists I can seem to find are:

The kbase articles look the most promising - but there is not a full list I can find?

For Example:

You use : =('Data Stamp'.'FileName')

Where does one find the function callout ?

Data Stamp'.'FileName

Is there a comprehensive list of all callouts?

Thank you for your time

Hi mk

Very impressive as I poke my head around the file.

I'm seeing a lot of the items I was interested in learning about!

Question: Is there a reason that the Filename and Total Sheets do not pull automatic values?

Sorry if this is a silly question - I'm kind of beat here on late Sunday night.

Thank you much,

Lots of great info here!

But the original question is "how do I reference the Sheet Names / Number / Description from the Organization Dialogue box?

If I enter then names there - I want my title block to reference them

Using the Sheet Border Tool - I have to put the information into each info pallet and each title block separately.

It seems much more straight forward - and much better organized - to pull the information from the "Organization" Pallet.

Obviously this is recorded - so I would like to pull it to use in my title block.

This will keep everything aligned when I use the Publish Tool.

Thanks

Thanks Pat

I want to create a TOC that utilizes the same info I use to "publish" a drawing set.

- So i don't want to use custom fields -

I want to be able to reference Drawing #'s, Names & Descriptions from the Organization window (see screenshot).

I would like to display the info in my title block AND in a TOC worksheet as a cover page.

Thank you

Hi,

Trying to build a worksheet to reference:

Sheet Number

Sheet Title

Sheet Description

And then also be able to put them in the Title Block.

Is there a way to do this? I can't figure out the syntax.

Or do I have to use the TitleBlock Tool ?

Thanks

Ethan

OMG Thank you !

It seems that there should be a good reference for this.

I'm not trying to reference

Sheet Number

Sheet Title

Sheet Description

Seems like it is a no brainer somehow ?? but i can't find it.

Can someone point me to the correct syntax?

October 30, 2016

is there a good tutorial on this?

I found the "wall report" tutorial - but it does not really show the "how" to construct arguments - just a lot of 'do this"

thanksl

October 27, 2016

So easy - so perfect

THANK YOU !!!!

is there a list of all the references somewhere?

I feel as if they are very hard to figure out what each one is.

Hi - Trying to create a wall schedule - and I want to name some walls for clarification.

Trying to create a Name (IFC Field in the OIP??)

and then pull it on the report?

Can someone give me the right location for the name and syntax for the report?

Thank you

I found the object that was causing the trouble.

Selected it.

then Right Click and chose release from the sub-menu

that seemed to do the trick

? the project file is on BOX - so in theory it should be synced with the home machine ?

October 5, 2016

Hi -

I checked out a layer on my home machine, and I guess I forgot to release it.

Now I'm at the office - and I can't edit the layer

Both CPU have Admin access.

How do I force check-in the layer ?

Or maybe it's force Check Out Layer ?

Help please !

You got it Kevin.

That 2-step process is my plan - going to try the viewport over a viewport! LOL!

August 10, 2016

Not sure why

I had it working great - then replaced a profile trying to get it working better

now apps not seeing the 3dware profiles ?

August 9, 2016

Ok - I had it working perfectly .. but now my 3dXware no longer links to my apps

have a message into 3dConnextion support

Hi -

Before I go into "research mode" (Trial & Error!)

I want to create an IMAG viewport.

Figuring I can

- Create a Viewport from a rendtrworks camera

- Copy that viewport to a sheet layer with a screen

distort / adjust that camera viewport to match the skew of the new viewport?

Anyone have a better idea?

Thanks!

Ethan

Thank you so much Jim !

Will give it a go!

(FYI - the old K-base was working better now then it did on last firmware).

Appreciate all.

best
