ok, now it works?! don't know why... carpalmer

apparently its a bug... according to Tech Support Arial Black Italic looks right on monitor, but will print "plain" (non-italic, same with pdf export. carpalmer

Just tried to render in FRW VW2008 a model done on VW 12.5.1 and it gave me the OUT OF MEMORY message and did not render! I went back to VW12.5.1 and it rendered! What's up?! VW 2008 can't handle what VW 12.5.1 could? Hope not, please advise. Thanks, carpalmer

Has anything changed in the way we should set up our drawings in VW 2008? Most improvements are in the interface, right? getting ready to kick off a new project tomorrow, and haven't had time to dwell on this... thx carpalmer

islandmon: can you expand on this... VW 2008 does not have italics for Arial Black? (can't check because I'm away from the office...) and if not, what options do we have? thanks, mon! carpalmer

any suggestions out there? carpalmer

any updates on this problem please thx carpalmer

I am trying to globally control transparency of furniture, image props, etc, so that I may tweak them in my rendered model. I've tried working classes and layers, but haven't been able to adjust opacity at all... The idea is to have building read "full strength" and then have a few different layers or classes where I can have image props, furniture symbols, etc. What am I missing? thx carpalmer

Windows PIO does not "show wall lines" even after I tell it to: inserted window in wall, then created symbol out of it and edited it (on PIO) to show wall lines, but they do not show. Also edited symbol insertion options to break wall full caps, but this doesn't work either... any advise out there, or anyone with the same problem? thx carpalmer XP PRO

My Italic font gets switched to regular when I print on both my printers... how do I fix this? thx carpalmer vw 2008

Katie: Computer is about a month old and has latest drivers for nVidia GeForce 8800 GTS 640M DDR3 will email you carpalmer

Been on it for about a week (Architect 2008)and have regular crashes, freezes, blinking monitor, VERY slow responsees, etc, etc... also some quirky symbol transformations when I rotate plan. Too many to go into detail, just want NNA to confirm they're aware of SEVERAL malfunctions and that they're on it. thx carpalmer XP PRO Intel Core Duo Q6600

thanks sross, that did it! lost 1/4" on the bottom of my monitor, but side scrolling works... carpalmer

Pharr: thanks, mouse is Logitech MX?1000 Laser Cordless Mouse XP Pro Looking forward to your news, carpalmer

islandmon: so I can't do it globaly through layer or class opacity? carpalmer

rendering in RW (final quality)2008 and cannot get my furniture to show up transparent. have tried adjusting opacity of furniture symbols,and also creating a transparent class and putting symbols in it... but they render SOLID! any tips? thx carpalmer

wezelboy are you able to side scroll wit VW 2008? thx carpalmer

I went through the mouse setup, and it DOES NOT WORK pls advise carpalmer

YES, Katie, I used it constantly (VW 12.5.1) as I said this was a great feature in the mouse, and allowed me to easily move through drawing with one hand mouse movements only, no cumbersome two handed manouvers required! Please follow up and let me know how I get it back. Thx panthony, that's a good tip, but is a coarse work-around since cannot adjust amount / speed of scrolling. carpalmer

pls review and reply side scrolling posting (copied below) Got upgrade and the sideways scrolling feature of my sideways tilting scroll wheel(zooms in and out if I roll wheel, scrolls sideways if I tilt it)does not work. I have a Logitech laser mouse and the sideways scrolling is a great feature I use CONSTANTLY to move / pan my drawing. I've downloaded latest drives from Logitech, I was told by phone tech that VW 2008 might not support this! Please let me know how to get this feature back since it plays a major role in my workflow. thx carpalmer

Katie/ Tech support: pls address my concern thx carpalmer

Thanks JAN15, I know about editing hatches, but not as much as you, will keep "units' tip in mind. Unfortunatelly the gyp bd detail hatch of the linear material tool does not show up in the resources, so I cannot edit it... carpalmer
