Your feedback was just what I needed. Thank you for the suggestions, videos and the pool model examples. Using 3d polys instead of trying to use the Site Modifier object did the trick. Scott, nice work with the premade pool objects. They look great and good to know they are available moving forward. Thank you for the detailed explanation. Jonathan, your videos are always helpful, thank you. Appreciate everyone's help. Best

I'm trying to integrate a swimming pool into a site model while subtracting material from a site model. The bottom of the pool has one flat section as well as two sloped sections at each end. Initially I tried to accomplish this with one site modifier but wasn't able to figure out how to configure the modifier to achieve the correct results so I'm now attempting to use three modifiers. This isn't working! Also, I noticed that the modifiers do not project straight up/down as shown in the example image. There is a gap at the bottom between the modifier while they are flush at the tops. What would be the ideal method for the site model subtraction? I appreciate any suggestions. I've back-saved a VWX file to v2022for reference. Thanks in advance, Ron Pool v2025 v2022.vwx

Try "Site Model Settings..." in the object info pallet and adjust the Minimum Elevation value as needed. If you select the Reset to Min/Max it should automatically adjust the values.

Wanted to check and see if anyone else is experiencing this situation. Since upgrading to v2025 newly created Section-Elevation Lines are not visible in viewports, at least for me. This seems to only occur with newly created sections in v2025. For example, if I open and convert a v2024 file the previously created Section-Elevation Lines show in viewports but if I created a new one, I get the two recently reported dialog warnings, "Error preparing the Vectorworks Vision Plugin" & "A Spotlight license must be present to use Showcase" and the section viewport is created however the marker will not display in other viewports. "Unlinked" Section-Elevation Lines will display while the "linked" ones do not. The attached v2025 test file demonstrating the issue. Any ideas for a work-around? Thank you, Ron Section-Elevation Line Test v2025.vwx

Jeff, probably about a half hour.

I’m achieving decent results using the AI Visualizer. Source: Output: If it’s helpful, here is the base prompt that was used to achieve this look. Prompt: water color and detailed black ink pen, Spanish Colonial Revival structure surrounded by vineyard background, smooth white stucco walls, mission tile roof, sky reflections in windows, rolling hills with rows of grape vines, sunset colors, keep vertical wood doors, agave, wet look, detailed plants I should point out that the look wasn’t achieved with simply entering the prompt and a single push the generate button. It did require some finesse with the prompts and the creativity slider to sort of build the look, repeatedly. Wash, rinse, repeat if you will. Many times it took me in a direction that I wasn’t aiming for so in that case I would have to refresh the image and started over until I was back on track. Up until last week when this feature appeared in the update, I was very skeptical of AI and purposefully avoided it but for my use, this is a win! Great job Vectorworks team! -Ron
