"Search" in Organization Closes Window Abruptly
ashot replied to Randene's question in Troubleshooting
I changed the Workspaces to defaults in VW 2025 - nothing helps to remedy VP filters. I created new fresh file in VW 2025 - I got no results, the same problem. However, after I opened the very same fresh file in VW 2026 it worked for VP filters as designed. Go figure out. -
"Search" in Organization Closes Window Abruptly
ashot replied to Randene's question in Troubleshooting
I just tired in Navigation Palettes, and yes, you are right, it works only after I hit Enter. But still it does not work for Viewports, it closes the window after I hit the same Enter. Can you confirm that it wroks for you when you hit Enter, does not matter which one on keyboard. -

No, if I enter search filter in Navigation I do not need to hit enter, it does it dynamically. If I hit Enter it closes the window. When I try the same for Viewports, the filter does not populate automatically, and if hit enter the window closes as it does in previous example. -

Does anyone know why we can NOT use Search/Filter for layers or classes in Viewport Layer or Class Properties? It works for Navigation Palette, but not for Viewports. -
Please check attached VW file in 2025 format. I hope this will solve the problem for 3d Poly with many-many vertices mimicking circle. How convert 3D Poly to Stakes.vwx

Help to change color of directional light with Script
ashot replied to ashot's topic in Vectorscript
Thank you Michael, You shared with me 8 Fake lights, in the same Layer but each with different classes. I use them In some Viewports and often I need to change the color of Directional lights to get better coloring results. I can do it manually for each of 8 lights, but thinking to check what color was alreardy assigned and be able to change it with script, WS or Marionette. -
