Is there a way to render recessed cans in the ceiling as a light source?
-
Yes it was active but it was overriding the change so I drew in another class and changed the attributes and checked (use at Creation) and voila, the new size appeared.
Your "class" suggestion sent down the right path.
Thanks!

I can't seem to edit the size of the arrows at the end of a line. I tried editing it but it still comes up at the same size (too large).
Vectorworks 2009 SP4 Mac OSX 10.5.

SORRY,sheet layer vs. design layer (switched from Autocad and happier ;-)). When dragged from the resource browser in the design layer, the symbol is to small (just a dot, unless I really zoom in). It is the switch symbol for a light from the resource browser. The symbol is closer to the correct size when inserted on the sheet layer, not in the viewport.
-
The objects/symbols in the resource browser are way too small. How do I correct this. I see that in paper space it is at the correct scale but not in model space. I tried editing the symbol by changing the scale but it changes the scale of the entire drawing. Thanks!
I have Vectorworks Architect 2009 SP4, Mac OSX 10.5

Actually, I did it. Thanks for trying!

I'm new to mac, how do you do that?
-
I have a new Macbook Pro, Leopard 10.5 and I tried installing Vectorworks 2009. Everything goes fine until I try to open the program. It tells me that the "factory default preferences in Vectorworks Preferences cannot be found. Please reinstall." I reinstalled from a dvd and get the same message.
What's up?

In the middle of working on a project today, I noticed that in the design layer, some objects are grey and I cannot modify them. I am in the same layer and class but I cannot figure out why just some of these appear to be this way. When I go into my viewport and try to modify them in the design layer, it's fine. What's up? Why can I modify in the Viewport but not in the Design Layer?
I am using Vectorworks 2009, Windows XP Media Edition, Toshiba Satellite Laptop

Any more suggestions, or do I just have to stick with 2008 until I get a new laptop?
-
I have tried both. I found the first option works for 2008 but it doesn't for 2009. I tried starting in the safe mode but it still happened. Don't understand the part about running the Onyx or Cocktail disk utility. Is this a downloadable program? Thanks!
-
Doesn't help me. I didn't think you could do a safe mode on a mac.

This morning when I tried to open a 2009 file, I got this message. I reinstalled twice and got a file to open once, then I got this message this again: "Vectorworks xml librairies failed to load. Please reinstall Vectorworks." What's going on? How do I get past this? Help!
-
They are updated. Computer guy says it's the video card. It worked fine for awhile.
-
I installed 2009 after receiving a new serial number for Windows after I installed it on my mac. Now the software on windows xp media center 2002 SP3 1.83 ghz keeps crashing after I complete about three commands. I have 1.5gs of Ram. Is the RAM the problem here or is it something else. It seemed to work fine for awhile and it has gotten worse. Thanks!
-
Yes, that fixed it.. Thanks everyone!
-
I have 2009 installed on my Windows laptop (XP Home) and am finding when I render a camera shot and try to create a viewport for printing, the entire program crashes. Could this be a Quicktime issue?
-
Well, that explains it. I did try to download the landru curtain but was unsuccessful. Will it play with 2009? I may be doing the wrong steps to insert it into the file. Any suggestions?
-
I can't even draw a curtain object. I can't activate the curtain plug in. I've tried copying, starting a blank document but nothing seems to work.
-
Tried updating plug ins but that didn't work. I don't know why I can't load the plug ins to the file either.
-
OK, I'll give that a try. Thanks
-
I try to add plug ins as a favorite folder but when I open the folder, the symbols are all grey and I can't select them. And to answer your question, yes, the file was created in an older version of vectorworks and updated to 2009. Couldn't post the file.
-
No go, it won't change. It seems locked in every aspect. Also, when I try to load plug ins, the symbols are all grey and I can't do anything with them. What's the deal?
-
FYI, the plug in is a curtain.
Edit handles on objects suddenly missing

The edit handles on objects are suddenly missing. I can move objects but can no longer lengthen or shorten, etc. What happened? Thanks!
