I don't know if this would be a feature request or a bug or I just have my settings set up incorrectly. Currently working on a rack elevation in dark mode and the white text on the white equipment item is murder on the eyes. Is there a way to change it so it doesn't flip black and white or to leave the text black?

That could work.

@Conrad Preen I also think the Redraw Circuit tool used to leave itself on even if you left the Connect tool as a whole. I can see how that would cause some unwanted issues.

Thanks @Conrad Preen. I must've gotten used to it and thought it was normal behavior. You're right, sometimes leaving it on can cause unwanted behavior. It was nice that it would turn itself off if you started drawing a new circuit on an empty socket.

Vectorworks Spotlight 2025 - [CTCH016871 - Design Master.vwx] 2024-10-04 08-47-21.mp4 It happens across all my files. I'm using Windows 10, VW 2025

Been coming across this since I updated to VW 2025. Anytime I use the Redraw Circuit tool I can only use it once. After I use it, I have to unselect it and select it again to redraw another circuit. It happens across all my files since updating. In VW 2024, I could keep using it until I turned it off.

Trying to understand this the best I can. We can now essentially use Equipment Items as pseudo 'Drop Points', correct?

That worked. Thank you

I like to publish my functional schematics in black and white. Whenever I publish, in and IO port symbols show up as gaps in the schematic block. Is there a way to fix or avoid this? I don't care if the port symbols are visible or not. Anyone have any thoughts?

It would be nice for connector panel IDs be able to coincide with drop point IDs. Usually we're specifying structural cable before drawing functional schematics and there are multiple cables that run from wall plates to a patchbay in the rack. Not all the cables are being used but they still need to be reflected as existing on the final drawing set.

Hi @Nikolay Zhelyazkov- I'm still having some issues with this and can't get things to scale correctly even after changing ConnectCAD settings. I uninstalled VW, reinstalled, created a fresh file, and the issue still came up without changing the grid or snap grid settings.

Working in VW 2024 with ConnectCAD and Spotlight. I'm having an issue with the size of my circuit blocks, specifically terminal panels and connector panels. They are all massive compared to the rest of the blocks. When I want to create a 48 port data patch panel, the spacing is very big and it doesn't fit within my drawing border. Anyone have any ideas how to fix this?

Hello all- I'm having some issues connecting a piece of equipment to a drop point. The cable route runs from the drop point and connects to a rack. When I try to connect the equipment object to the drop point, it does not show connection to the rack. Currently running Vectorworks 2024. I'm not sure if I'm even doing it correctly. Thanks in advance
