[Ant ideas as to why my roof face fill is showing like this?]

Can you send me the file?

[Can't Seem to Replicate Styled Wall's Material/Texture]

Hope this sort clip can clarify the texture control in your walls.

Hi,

Edit the Material and check the Report as Component Area in the Construction Tab. HTH

[IFC exporting issues]

Can you send me a file with an object that behaves properly or close and one that doesn't and list some parameters that you like to see

 

[IFC exporting issues]

Hi Henrique, 

You have to attach the IFC record to the symbol at the Resource level (Right click on the Symbol), in you case would be IfcFurnishingElementType then mark/check the IFC entities/Psets that are to be used and fill the Property Values as desired

[IES File issue (VW2019 SP latest)]

I encountered the same issue and reported it as bug, the current workaround that I found, it is that the light is aiming 90° down meaning perpendicular to the ground, if the light is tilted 0.01° then the light rotates with the symbol.

There is  a call (GetFPathName) but my scripting capabilities have gone south, maybe Pat can chip in @Pat Stanford

[Link to file location]

Yes you can customize the Data Stamp to show just the file address, checking for file path

[XY Coordinates]

Is something like this (On the Vw file) what you are looking for? Its a Data Tag looking for the x/y coordinate of an object

HTH

 

 XY.vwx

[Link to file location]

This data can be added to your Title block or if you want to use it randomly anywhere the Data Tag will be the tool for this

Please add Hardware, OS and Vw version

[Placement of doors in split level design]

As Jonathan explained, it is about file settings, I would extend a little furder and add that this involves Stories and Levels to automate some of the processes,  here is a sample of how this can be achieve http://download2cf.nemetschek.net/bim/2018-sykesville-res-allfiles1525125594.zip

[Surface-Sliding Door]

Hi Chris, attach is a barn door done as Zoomer described, pay attention to the flip and offset for the door positioning

Also keep an eye on the Marionette forum in the next couple of weeks...

[Unexpected end of file encountered during file read operation]

Try importing all layers including objects to a new file if that does not work Contact Tech Support 

[Stair down label]

You are right controlling the Upper Floor notes on the Lower Floor layer is odd, I just got used to it (not good), I will write an enhancement request 

There should be handles for each of the Runs and Notes, in your case I would think that they are stacked on top of each other 

BTW The Stair object does not play well with mirroring nor flip, use the radio buttons on the general panel of the Stair settings

22 hours ago, zoomer said:

Maybe the Select/Drag Tool Mode is currently set to most left "move only" mode

so that the handles wont appear ?

It sounds accurate

Use the center or right interactive mode in the tool bar, that should activate the blue handles 

[Stair down label]

There should be a blue handle, click and drag

[Guard rail for ramps]

I would recommend using the same Railing Fence Tool in the second mode in the Tool Bar

I assuming that something like this is what you are looking for.

You may need to play around to get the exact modulus

I do concur with Tom, and if there is no issues on renumbering in DD and/or CD I would still update them, the clip shows the technic I would use
