  1. Hi, is it right, that 2021 axis-objects are invisible in DLSVP/designlayer-section-viewports? I can see them in sheetlayer-viewports...
  2. well, looks like you might need a Mac πŸ˜‰ (just a joke)
  3. the last time I worked with revit, it was server based. There now exists also the option of shadowing a project between two offices in two different cities/buildings... so you always work with your "local" server. We had the technical-engineer-files (heating, air, electro sanitary and the according wall openings) directly linked together, too, working from two locations, connected via vpn
  4. a very convincing reason: i still didn't know of the existence of that command/function πŸ™ˆ thank you! πŸ™‚
  5. Hi i still got a few ps-server questions: 1) the shared folder accessed by the psserver is the place where all project files, managed through the running server app are stored in, right? (i think YES) 2) is it possible to run more server-app instances on one server machine 3) do you maybe recommend running psserverd on more machines maybe? Or is one server for more projects ok? (mainly for load balancing and reliability issues) 4) how many projects are possible on one server-app? we have more server-computers: a mac mini and a cylindric mac pro. 5) if another colleague wants to participate he first has to open the vwxp-file on the shared folder, right? 6) why didn't you set up a REAL SERVER WITH USER MANAGEMENT, PROJECT MANAGEMENT... like the hungarians did, too. Revit does it for example as well... so sad πŸ˜‰
  6. @JBenghiat pity, my script still is rather slow, so i wished i could install a progress bar to pacify all possible impatient colleagues πŸ˜‰
  7. So, Vectorworks/my workstation does still directly communicate with the shared file? - I wished, Vectorworks would communicate with the server-app which should be able now to manage more then one person committing and refreshing changes simultaneously, right? Or does VW still communicate with the shared file, as well?
  8. Just another idea: priority levels from 1 to x, which set the importance of the chosen criteria. level 2 criteria are set in one bracket, level 3 in 2 brackets... I think, this could be a way, to solve that issue in a rather simple and comprehensive way. More complicated criteria sets so still have to be written in "manual-code". what do you think? (2 options...) @elepp @Hugues
  9. btw, the first in the introduction of vector script is basing mainly on the Message-command. I'm sure, the page hasn't been touched for a rather long time, however, a quite unsatisfying "first script" for beginners ;-).
  10. yeah, that's what a friend already recommended me to do from the beginning. πŸ˜‰ I think I have to rewrite my script in python asap.
  11. Hi, I try to put out some Info via the message bar. (i actually am thinking about some kind of progress bar) Unfortuntately their doesn't appear any text in the message bar... any ideas? (it's the first example script from the developer-page) πŸ˜‰
  12. could you eventually visualize your ideas with a screenshot and a photoshop-collage? I still am thinking about alternatives how to enhance the actual criteria-dialogue.
  13. I could imagine like in the following screenshot. Maybe with a checkbox to enable or disable the functionality, so, users who don't care about "&" and "|" don't have to think about it. However, if you already start to use worksheets with criteria filters setting logical links is an elementary thing.
  14. @Pat Stanford I know about the Database Formula. I can edit it also in former Vectorworks-Versions, immediately after having left the dialogue. in my opinion, worksheets are a rather good feature in Vectorworks. However, not being able to edit & and | is quite a limitation for getting deeper in good worksheets. I think their should already exist an Enhancement Request...
  15. Hi, I like working on worksheets in Vectorworks, however, Vectorworks tends to set "&" and "|" connections for Database-criteria rather randomly. (with a logic behind it, but, not always matching my aims) As you can see in the screenshot, i want to filter all Rooms which are bathrooms from Building nr. 1 However, everytime I try to set these criteria, Vectorworks writes: "=DATENBANK(((R IN ['Wohnung']) & (('Wohnung'.'Zimmertyp'='Bad') | ('Wohnung'.'Haus-Nr'=1))))" I always have to switch in "=DATENBANK(((R IN ['Wohnung']) & (('Wohnung'.'Zimmertyp'='Bad') & ('Wohnung'.'Haus-Nr'=1))))" Can't you implement the option of setting the logical connection for "And" "Or" or "not" directly in criteria dialogue? That would be quite, recommended (not great) (like in the second screenshot)
  16. @JBenghiat @Pat Stanford I finally made it πŸ˜„ (with a week off vacation inbetween πŸ˜‰ ) It works. I hope there is nothing strange in that script. I decided not to use the critstring. I didn't get it working, now without critstring the script works fine. Thanks a lot for your help!
  17. another idea would be asking designexpress for a trial version of Vectorworks. They're the reseller in the Netherlands. (just an idea) Or ask the person where you have your Vectorworks file from to convert you a dwg. https://www.designexpress.eu/nl
  18. !!!!! another project with bimcollab and all of our planning partners have plugins in there software, only Vectorworks doesn't
  19. here you have been using Concat instead of Num2Str, why not, seems much easier...
  20. @JBenghiat packing single quotes into a string can be a lot of fun, i guess πŸ˜‰ thank you
  21. Yes, Iβ€˜ve already solved that problem with three variables for one issue, the first is REAL or INTEGER, the second one is a STRING and the third one a ...CHAR variable, num2str converts my REAL or INTEGER into a STRING... works fine thanks a lot I will check out the rest tomorrow πŸ€—
  22. Did I understand right, that I have to pack two procedures in one script? like that:
  23. oh, excuse me, I have been translating directly from german. I want to select objects by record fields and not by their names and assign new data to other record fields. Let's say, "get me all geometry(=rectangles, polygons,...)" who match "(('Apartment',Housing'=HNr) &('Apartment',Apartmentnumber'=ANr)) and assign the values for total-nr of rooms and total area to a record field in every room-geometry of this apartment... Somehow it seems to me, that it isn't possible to assign an object to a handle which is chosen by a record field and not by its name... (and now I try to limit myself to assigning single objects to that handle πŸ˜‰ ) sorry for bothering
  24. @Pat Stanford great, thank you! Now I took notice of that functions, too πŸ˜„
