  1. Hello I'm using Vectorowrks 2021 on Windows 11 A few months a go I had to reinstall the program onto a new laptop and ever since I've had a recurring problem with the undo command. Most commonly if I move a plant symbol and then undo the move it will simply create a new plant in the original location and leave the original symbol in the new undesired location. It hasn't been a big deal so I've just been avoiding it or deleting the extra plant when I need to. However occasionally it happens to polygons when I'm using the fill tool which is a problem because I can't always detect it as the polygons will be on top of one another. If I need to calculate the sq ft I may get twice the number without realizing it. Really hoping I can find a solution as the undo is such a powerful tool that I hate to avoid. I've looked around the forums but haven't found this problem yet. thanks
  2. Sometimes when I edit the 2d display of a plant symbol several lines show up once I exit the symbol edit that weren't there before. For example, if I create a plant symbol and simply make it one circle, when I exit the edit mode there will about 4 or 5 overlapping circles. If I go back to the edit screen only the original circle will be visible and editable but the extra lines will still show up every time I exit the edit screen. I haven't been able to remedy the problem. Once a symbol gets infected with the extra lines there doesn't seem to be anything I can do to get rid of them, even if I delete all the line work and start again. It doesn't appear to be a class issue as I've tried changing class designations and visibility repeatedly with no results. The only solution I've found is to create a whole new symbol from scratch, which kind of undermines the convenience of the symbol if it won't stay consistent. A solution to the problem would be ideal, but at this point I'd just be happy to know what's causing it so I can try to avoid it in the future. First picture is in the 2d edit mode and the second shows the symbol in the design layer. All classes and layers are turned on in both pictures.
  3. Just got a new macbook pro and am enjoying a faster use of the Vectorworks 2018 but a few bugs have shown up that weren't on the old Imac. The worst of these is trying to publish PDFs. Sometimes there are huge chunks missing on the pdf. Usually Plant symbols but other objects and groups will be missing. There doesn't seem to be any issue with class visibilities because half of the objects of that class will be visible but not the rest. Even two of the same symbol on the same class, one will be visible and not the other. No idea what to do.
