    Thats probably just bad Uv mapping in vw. If you select planes with same material inside tm and make the material double sided a lot of objects reappear. Sometimes it’s easier to look behind the missing object. Watching the backside.

    Hi @Alvar I have used FBX export with great success. Save my FBX export with same name and location and update my project with the reload button inside TM

    Hi @Ed Wachter For almost flat roofs its better to use slabs and adjust drainage to make it sloping https://app-help.vectorworks.net/2022/eng/VW2022_Guide/Floors_slabs/Slab_drainage_settings.htm?rhhlterm=slab drainage&rhsearch=slab drainage

    Hi @gfilippini Im not sure hove to solve your problem but I love Datatags and interested to se creative ways of their use. For some parameters it is possible to select the units but i see in your screenshot it is grayed. I think you can after the formula add /1000 or whatever you want to divide with. This will work until you change the units in the document

    Hi @mattryan Is it an older project opened in 2022? If so, I have learned that sometimes it helps to move the window by zero to make the plugin regenerate and the opening appears again

    Yo probably have to upgrade VW to 2022

    You can always delete it, inside the annotation part of the viewport

    You have to select the active document. It seems you are choosing symbols in a not active document and the only option is to import.

    Hi When using layer referencing its important to make a good system for layer names to avoid conflicts We use typically 6 layers for each floor and named by building, floor, purpose every floor have layers for slabs, walls and furniture, spaces for calculations, ceilings annotations for scale 1:100 and 1:50

    Hi We are using a workflow without stories and with old layer referencing like described her below: Currently we are doing the opposite as you ar asking for, a file with four buildings distributed on several layers, and referencing each one to drawing sets with sections and elevations for printing.

    Hi @riccardo mazzoleni If they are simple extrudes, they have to have a solid fill. Check the attributes palette

    I have reported VW Window's (not Door's) Jambs and/or Sashes rotated by 90° (from vertical to "Layer Plane ?)
  17. Hans-Olav
    Just guessing but you also might have some layers set as grayed in the viewport. Grayed layers render transparent

    Hi You can select the dimensions you want and then choose Menu / Text / and choose whatever font size you like

    Hi Liz I don't know if its help but one idea would be to export to twinmotion, then import to UE. For example exporting as FBX you can choose native VW organization, by texture, by class and so on

    I see I think you could use data-vis to achieve this: https://app-help.vectorworks.net/2021/eng/index.htm#t=VW2021_Guide%2FViews%2FCreating_a_new_data_visualization.htm&rhsearch=data visualization&rhhlterm=data visualization&rhsyns=

    If you uncheck unified view you should be able to see them https://app-help.vectorworks.net/2021/eng/index.htm#t=VW2021_Guide%2FViews%2FUnified_layer_view.htm&rhsearch=unified view&rhhlterm=unified view&rhsyns=

    Are you on an unsupported OS version? https://www.vectorworks.net/sysreq

    agree with @Tom W. I have often used them and nice to have it all built in the app. https://www.mtextur.com/materials/41920?color=Weiss&locale=de-CH&subtype=&type=Beton+%26+Zement

    It depends on what version you are using. In newer versions it should be possible to use image effects and remove saturation https://app-help.vectorworks.net/2021/eng/index.htm?#t=VW2021_Guide%2FRendering1%2FImage_effects.htm&rhsearch=image effects&rhhlterm=image effects&rhsyns=
