Hmm yea, I tried this but I need the arc to stay attached to the corner of the cube. Thats why I think extrapolate is the best term what I want to do. I just want to continue the curve as is. Excuse the upside down working plane haha, as you can see, using the reshape tool means the arc does not pass through that point any more.

Hi all, I've the regular googling and forums searching, and its possible I'm using the wrong words or I'm going about this the wrong way cause I can't find much. I've drawn an ARC using the point on arc mode of the polyline tool that Ill compose and extrude, I want the arc to touch each side of the rectangle and then go through a specific point. The point on arc tool makes this easy. But I need to extend the arc along the arc path, I guess I want to extrapolate the continuation of the line to an unknown point in space. Is there a way to do this or am I approaching this wrong? I thought I had seen this in a video on the university but can't seem to find that either. Thanks in advance, Hazz

Amazing, thank you! I was playing with the summarize items function and the sum initially but didn't have the SUBSTRING and VALUE function, which I learnt about from your replies to others on the forums. I'm glad I picked VW and not WYSIWYG!

Hi guys, I am currently learning VW after moving from AutoCAD, and I'm hoping for some help with the reports. I've got several lighting pipes, which I've converted into hanging positions and attached lighting devices. I've used the total hung weight record and it includes the weight of the pipe, which is great if you're hanging the pipe as well. But if you are using venue pipe, the venue just wants to know how much you are putting on the pipe. I've tried a few methods and ended up with the below, which is almost what I need, but not quite. Using criteria such as: if lighting device has position X. Using substring to remove the "kg" which means I can convert it to a value and then sum in the data base header. I really only want two columns and a row for each position in the report (plus headers). Position, Weight Lighting Bar 1, 250kg Lighting Bar 2, 311kg I'm currently stuck with the database showing in the worksheet and then the sum only in the database headers. Its a bit of a work around, because I would need to duplicate this for each hanging position and append, unless there is a way to do it all at once that I'm not seeing. But the work around is ok if I can get the result. What am I missing here? Hazz
