@John Medland MAIBC thanks so much for this. it seems there was a line floating miles away from my building, after doing some work in elevation! i've deleted this and now when i do fit to objects, it zooms in on everything. and Open GL seems to be behaving now! I was worried the graphics card on my new laptop was failing 😧

@fabrica Thanks for this! although im not 100% how to set this up as a new texture. Is there a guide?

What is the best way to achieve a timber cladding finish? it seems you cant get a prominent plank bump and a wood texture at the same time i might have to manually cladding the building in 3D rectangles!

I moved my heliodon to a different layer and this seemed to sort it.

@Tamsin Slatter I think I have already done this on this file. But i have done it again and all my walls have disappeared in Open GL

@JuanP thanks for this i follow the steps and it was fine at first, but the weird appearance has returned!

anyone got a clue why my building looks like this in Open GL? I've recently got a new laptop and I've tried to set the NVIDIA graphics card to ideal settings for vectorworks, but not sure i've done it right.

@michael john williams this fixed my issue of walls disappearing! thank you!

My vectorworks 2018 is doing this really badly, on a brand new HP Z book laptop, on even the smallest of files. Mainly with doors and windows.

@jblock still having this issue, now even worse. vectorworks 18 not responding almost every time i select a window. makes it so difficult to do anything!

we are on a 2018 license

@jblock windows 10. On a brand new hp z book. Other than this the performance is great!

@jblock yes it is still slow. even when i close the OIP vectorworks takes a long time to select more complex objects

It is also so slow to changed object info eg. Flip a door, change a wall thickness but using parameters in the object info pallette

VW 2018 Every time I select an object such as window, wall or door, the programme freezes and takes ages to load the object info pallette. The pallette is graphically glitching as it switches info. The programme hasn't slowed down overall but this is slowing down the work!
