Hello Everyone, I've received a title block that is in .dwg format and should be sized for an ARCH E drawing. When I import it into VW it automatically lands on my sheet layer which is good, but the page size is always an 8.5x11 and the title block and info format to fit that size instead. I've experimented with the settings in the import dialogue box, but always get the same results. Can any one offer any insight? Thanks! Josh

Hello, I'm having issues trying to create a custom lighting device in VW 2019, something I just did in 2018, but am no longer getting the results as expected. It's been several months since I last created a fixture so I'm assuming I've forgotten a step but I've gone back and rewatched the videos that I originally learned from so I'm not sure where I'm going wrong. Basically, I'm creating the fixture in a separate drawing from my project, and when I've completed the process and I try to add it to either drawing it is still just a 2D/3D symbol instead of a Lighting Device even though it has a light info record attached. Does this sound like an easy fix with a step I'm overlooking? If not I can list out the steps in my process. Thanks in advance for any input! Josh

Hi Michael, I wasn't aware of that option, but it looks like the dimension class was already set to visible there. I did double-check to make sure that the dimensions are in the correct class/layer.

I'm hoping this will be an easy one as I'm a little new to VW and am probably missing a step. I'm trying to add dimensions to a section but I'm losing them somewhere along the way between the design and sheet layer. On the design layer I go to a right view, set my active plane to 'screen plane', and snap the dimensions to show the heights I want. However when I create a viewport around the portion I want to show and go to my sheet layer, the dimensions do not show up. What am I missing? Josh
