Could the content manager also reach out to me?

 

@Remco Teunissen I provided you information a few years ago and then we did not hear from you again about standards. I will forward you that email. 

 

Manufacturers need to use the link here for their requests and you will then be put into the queue: https://www.vectorworks.net/en-US/community/partner-network

We have a massive backlog of manufacturer content to develop and add.

 

 

[Effective downgrading of access to various Resource Content ??]

Hi all,

 

We have fixed this problem with the plants image based symbols not being available in the Resource Manager and that will be coming out soon to you. You will see this in the next Resource Manager update that gets pushed out in VW 2023.

 

As for the overall folder structure between VW2022 and VW2023, yes we did a major reorganization to the libraries. There are now eleven top level folders containing sub-discipline or subjects within.

 

 

  

[Updating Resources - Can this happen in the background please?]

I will put it on our list of requested improvements. Thanks

[Update IKEA SEKTION Cabinet Styles to current 2021-2022 IKEA U.S. product line (Premium Library)]

Hi all,

Thanks for bringing this to our attention. We plan to get an update for this in VW2022 SP3.

[Slab Drainage default drain symbols: floor gullies needed]

Hi all, Thanks for this information. We will review this and look at improving this in the libraries.

[Symbol insertion as active class]

Hi all,

 

Our architecture, and landscape symbols are setup to make use of the Standard Naming feature. The classes assigned to the symbols come from a standard reference list. The feature can be used to map the classes. If you are using Architect, Landmark or the Designer product, you can find it here in the menu, File>Document Settings>Standard Naming...

 

Here is the VW2021 Help page about this topic:

https://app-help.vectorworks.net/2021/eng/index.htm#t=VW2021_Guide%2FSetup%2FStandard_naming.htm&rhsearch=standard naming&rhhlterm=standard naming&rhsyns=

 

Also see the video link at the end of the page that shows you how to do this. 

 

Once you setup your own user classes and mapping through this, then the symbols will map to how you want it to be. 

 

Best regards,

Chris Baccala

Hi all,

 

Thank you for pointing out these problems in the libraries. We will start correcting this for later release.  Can you list out the most prominent problem lighting libraries for us to prioritize?
