  1. I just started a file with and urban layout of polygons and inserted some massing models. Inserted a light object, render with OpenGL, but I get no projected shadows, just own shadow, even with a floor object as a base plane. I copy the items and paste them to an older drawing and I get the shadows.
  2. Interesting exchange. I am exploring Nomad again after a few years of not touching it (saw it at the VWs Chicago convention in 2016). I see it has some issues with navigation and large models but I believe the iOS app recently got a upgrade. How do you use or recommend using it for a faster learning curve.
  3. Is there a way to detect and eliminate duplicate items in a drawing? I got this Shapefile and everything is duplicate, same layer.
  4. My MB Pro M1 runs 2021 Architect pretty well and so far 2022 seems even better. Check Jonathan Reeves 2022 test on the MP Pro M1 on Youtube.
  5. It would seem logical but I cannot find the way.
  6. I just noticed the Create Animation menu does not show the correct dialog box... its old. Had to redo the Workspace. Settled. 🤷‍♂️
  7. Click on them and some editing is possible vis the OIP. I don't know how to eliminate or make them appear if they don't show (a case with one of my viewports). I'd like to know if there a way to globally control them in viewports, like their overall height and position in the viewport (your issue). I'm reading on the VWs Help but its a bit dense for me right now.
  8. Moderator, please move this to the 2022 thread if you think so.
  9. Thanks for the suggestion. Have you had big issues with this? The only prob I see with not doing it is that you might loose on the newer tools, but I always check.
  10. It's in the Users Folder but a I got a message saying it could not load. Any suggestions? Thanks.
  11. I think I used to do it. Can't find a setting for sloping panels.
  12. I am trying to slope it. Is it possible?
  13. Trying to slope a fence. I could swear it was possible, but can't find the ''slope" setting for the panels and top railing.
  14. It is a 500 mb file. Patterns will shown on screen for a split second and then disappear. When I make a PDF with the Finder "Save as PDF" the PDF file will print the patterns when printed from a PC. I have not tried printing from my Mac bc I cannot print to the office printer yet. The patterns will not print when the PDF is made with Vectorworks instead of the Mac Fonder. What is a DM?
  15. I think I discovered my issue... I draw on a Mac but as I don't have access yet to the office printers I need to move the PDF to a PC and print from there. The "Save as PDF" command in Mac makes perfectly looking file for a Mac but when transferred to the PC (running Windows 10) it shows the pattern no matter if the viewport was rendered with Open GL or RWs. It occurred to me to do a PDF Export or a Publish directly from VW 2021 and the pattern doesn't show anymore in the PC PDFs. Maybe this should be forwarded to Apple but I don't have a clue as to how.
  16. Do you also have a background photo? I have a Google Earth pic as a RW texture attached to a floor object (to get reflected shadows from the 3D objects)
  17. How can I get rid of these patterns/noise in a Open GL, draw edges, anti aliasing, 200 dpi rendering? I see they are also present in Fast Renderworks . They don't show on screen, but do when a PDF is printed. Thanks.
  18. Thats (Cmd+.) what I do but it rarely works at the moment.
  19. It would save lots of time if there was such a command. I remember when you could stop a viewport render, but it seems it doesn't work anymore.
  20. Let me know where is the file and where can I send it. Also, is there a thread we can report Mac M1 issues?
  21. I see you're on the M1, also. I find the 2021 push/pull very unreliable and even crashes my Mac.
  22. I am on 2021 and I am having problems making even very simple push/pull objects. The operation will work a few times and then the beachball comes up and there no way of cancelling the operation and I have to do a forced restart. Now I have to save before even clicking on the tool.
