Cannot thank you enough. For some forgotten reason there was a design VP hidden there. Rascal... Thanks again.

I get double entries when Spaces are NOT duplicated. I make all layers and classes visible and there are only 23 Spaces.

It would be useful if this could be done. You could give a client a list (Excel?) of items and once done importing it it could give you data on each space's requirement.

Hi, Laura. I am using VW2022 on a 2020 MacBook Pro M1 with 16mb RAM and also getting tons of "Caching Graphics..." It is very annoying and slows all the design/drawing process.

Thanks to all for the responses. The arrows were polygons and converting them to shallow floors fixed the problem. Those are not light bursts but blurs from the Google pic I pasted onto a floor object to use as the "site" so I didn't have to redraw the whole neighborhood. The issue with the white in the above pic was fixed by selecting white as the viewport fill... a new one for me!! Thanks.

I keep getting this pixelated effect. It used to be in PDFs made with Apple Preview and I could bypass it by doing an export via Vectorworks. Now I get them right in the VWs viewport and cannot get rid of them. Any tips on how to overcome this? Thanks. The VP is Shaded (but it shows even in Final Quality Renderworks) and the Sheet Layer resolution is 200 dpi.

In one case it shows the umbrella and in the other it simply disappeared. If I duplicate the correct one and move it, it will eventually show w/o the umbrella. I'm stumped.

Is the "Center on objects after view change" not working? My VWs seems to do it around the page center instead.

For some reason the object was located about 300' below 0'-0" level. I relocated it and looks OK now.

How can I undo the AH? Not getting the desired results, the object turns transparent in any view except plan.

Sorry about that. Those diagonals are prefab bleachers at a medium sized roofed basketball court.

I have an Extrude Along Lines with a solid subtraction that is showing transparent in plan new. How can I give it a color so that wall below it do not show?

Fixed!! I was doing it that way, but I became confused with the plan originally being rotated. Your suggestion is the correct way. Thanks for the prompt reply.

Trying to do a "skating pool" but I get these strange overlaps and I'm not sure what is it I'm doing wrong.

Noticed that some overrides do not work. I'm I doing or not doing something? I want my Trees layer to show 25% opacity so I can see the plan below but still have some tree presence, but it doesn't do it.

I sometimes like the road object as ramp bc it will give me the station elevations. But, when trying this ramp in 2D I get the curved item in 3D. Why can't things just work as intended?

I have just one template. I think it would be really difficult to try to keep many templates up to date. Big projects will have big files, but I have not had the luck of getting huge projects. You can reference Design Layers into Design Layers (even when the original is in another drawing and "have a master detail file and reference it for every project") and then into Sheet Layers but not Sheet Layers from one drawing into Sheet Layers on another drawing.

I haven't done this in a while so I am a bit confused...

And then this... Zero bytes.

Seems the 720p standard is the problem. Used 1080p instead and seems to be working.

Having problems with movie creations so I tried this setting. Why would a Shaded 5 second movie take 10+ minutes to render? I had to force quit VWs.

Hello Wes, any tutorials on how to work with Data Tags?

Landscape areas, roads, traffic lines.

What are the best shapes to conform to a DTM? • Floors, Slabs and extrudes can be sent to the DTM surface but do not wrap. • 3D polys will wrap but cannot be given a depth. • Roadways can conform and wrap over the DTM. How do you do sidewalks (I use roadways)? ...road lines, pedestrian crossings? Thanks
