If you're doing that why use Stories at all? Take a look at the original post in this thread to see the No Story workflow.

I'm glad I remembered seeing this on the forum. I never would have figured it out on my own. The interface could use a little improvement.

Working from memory: you should be able to use the Structural Member tool to create a Unistrut profile.

You can drag an image file and drop it onto your drawing area and the image import dialog options will pop up (at least on Mac). Or, just copy an image (e.g. in Preview on Mac) and paste it into your drawing, but this method doesn't give you options in terms of file size & resolution.

I use Timing, and have also tried Timemator, both of which can be purchased separately or are included as part of SetApp. If you want to get SetApp with an invitation link and a free month for each of us, use this: https://go.setapp.com/invite/vnj2cs0o but no problem if you don't want to.

If added, please make this an option and not a default. In my practice, hyphens are reserved for foot-inches.

No issues so far with M2 MacBook Air 24gb

Thankfully they’ve all been taken care of.

Here's a link to my workflow: https://forum.vectorworks.net/index.php?/topic/105461-property-line-tool/&do=findComment&comment=459444

Not possible. there's a Wishlist request to add this functionality. Please vote at the following link (up arrow at top right):

You should be able to change the keyboard command via the Workspace Editor: https://app-help.vectorworks.net/2024/eng/VW2024_Guide/Start/Customizing_workspaces.htm

BenQ has monitors with a CAD/CAM setting. Does anyone have any experience with them?

Agreed

I can’t answer your question, but can offer other related info. You can use a 5k iMac as a retina display for a new Mac with the Astropad Luna dongle and software. It’s not perfect, but it’s a lot less expensive than Apple, LG, or Samsung 27” 5k. I can elaborate on the issues if you’re interested.

I haven't seen this in my practice (custom single family residential in Seattle, USA). We reduce the cabinet depth and furr out from the wall if needed.

The pink square is the Working Plane indicator, which is irrelevant in Top/Plan mode it so doesn't appear there. I don't know if there's a way to disable it in 3D views, but you could set the color to match the background so it doesn't show. You can change its graphic properties in: Vectorworks -> Preferences -> Interactive -> Interactive Appearance Settings... (button )-> General - Working Plane (in light and dark background tabs).

This is the most common issue that I have to deal with. Thanks for the clear explanation.

If needed, you can detach walls that have already been connected using the Remove Wall Breaks tool.

It has a separate side scroll above the 2 thumb buttons. I forgot that it's there and never use it.

I'm using the Logitech MX Master 3S for Mac and really like it. I think it meets all of your criteria and can be bluetooth paired to 3 separate Mac/Windows devices. OR: I have an almost unused 3D Connection SpaceMouse & CadMouse set that I'd be happy to sell.

Not at all. But if the person really has difficulty with simple computer skills I figured I'd give them exact instructions. I didn't mean to imply you were wrong.

Bookmark this in your favorite browser: https://app-help.vectorworks.net/2024/eng/index.htm . There's no need to have it open via VW. If you're using another version or language, bookmark the relevant page.

It's a macOS, not VW, change:

Working from memory: You should be able to create a different unlinked Section Line (or Marker?) of a different style and link it to the same section viewport. I'll try to confirm how I have this set up when I have more time.

Have you tried importing a PDF of the object and then ungrouping the PDF?
