New Feature EvergreenConnect Plugin Problem
Peter Neufeld. replied to Narelle's topic in General Discussion
Hi Kevin, It's a major Australian and New Zealand nursery and is available in Help>Partner Products but it wouldn't be much use for the USA. Users can get a free trial membership for 6 months and then a small fee to remain connected to Evergreen Connect. My colleague @Ben Beaumont was the driving force and designer of this great new partnership feature. Cheers, Peter -
New Feature EvergreenConnect Plugin Problem

Hello, Strange that your images didn't come through. I think you are the person who contracted support separately and we ascertained that the IT set up didn't allow automatic modification to your workspace so we fixed it up manually. (If you're not that same person please contact us directly). For other Australia and New Zealand users who might be interested this 2 minute video explains this fantastic new feature for our users: https://university.vectorworks.net/mod/overview/view.php?id=7913 Cheers, Peter -
Hello, Currently there is no universal setting to change all plant styles at once in a file, but I believe there might be coming up. In the meantime import the script in the enclosed Vectorworks file (you can import the palette that contains it) and once in a document it will allow you to edit individual plant parameters of every plant at once in a file. Cheers, Peter Change Plant Style Settings script v2025.vwx

Hello, Thank you for drawing this to our attention. That's a 🐛! VB-211346 Creating a Landscape Area is certain situations changes the default attributes of a file. Cheers, Peter

Hello, What happens if you move the reference files somewhere else so the file can't find them? Assuming of course that the reference cache is saved to disk that is. That will force you to find the broken reference and if you say no, it should open anyway without having to go through the update, as that seems to be the hold up? Also are you able to open those reference file(s) by themselves? Cheers, Peter

Actually someone did I've just found out which is how this was revived from Munsterberg (that's a funny name). The café wall optical illusion was described by Richard Gregory, professor of neuropsychology at the University of Bristol, in 1979. The unusual visual effect was noticed in the tiling pattern on the wall of a nearby café. Both are shown in this image Cheers, Peter

Hello, Of course there are loads of things like this that trick the eye. It's not really a CAD thing but I came across this one and thought I'd draw it up for a bit of fun. Enc file there are 2 Saved Views. The first one shows the 'courses' greyed out apart from one and you can see them all as being straight. The second Saved View has them all fully shown and they suddenly become all wonky. Cheers, Peter Optical illusion.vwx

Hello, In fact if you have 'Plug in Parameters' checked for the Eyedropper it can transfer all parameters of one Renderworks Camera to another - apart from it's rotation (ie where it's actually pointing towards). A quick manual way to add cameras to viewports would be to edit the viewport>Camera and place one anywhere. Then in the OIP click 'Match current View' and it's done - but if a script can do it great! Cheers, Peter

Hello, I had someone last week with a similar problem after update 4 on Windows. A 'Repair' with the Vectorworks 2025 Install Manager fixed it. In the Program files/Vectorworks 2025 folder open the app and top right in the hamburger menu choose 'Repair'. You have to have Vectorworks closed to run it. I hope this fixes your issue 🤞! Cheers, Peter

Hello, Have you tried the Laubwerk Plants in the Visualisation toolset? Also, for parking meters unless you can get a 3D model or model one yourself, how about using the AI Visualiser and producing a text only prompt with an Alpha channel so that you can make an Image Prop from it? You don't have to know much about Image Props because when in the 'Save' tab if you choose 'Image Prop' it'll plonk one right on the page for you. I couldn't resist and mocked up your photo using those options. If you want the file DM me and I'll send it over. Cheers, Peter

Hello, I really really can't wait for this in v2026 as described in the Public Roadmap. 🤞 Don't forget to attend the Open House next week for some keynote speeches! Cheers, Peter
