  1. I’m giving removing the keyboard shortcut to disable snap cues “tilde” I may hitting that key with the “tab”?? it’s a start but I still suspect it’s a Mac thing maybe??
  2. The screen tool is a Great plugin. Is there any chance the short throw distance projectors can be added? The type that use a mirror and reverse projector. This is becoming a growing need in the world of floorplans. Yes I can adjust the lens to make it work but it doesn’t flip the projector and add the mirror device required to make the footprint correct just askin’ Jeff
  3. I have a 2022 Mac Studio M1 Ultra 128G ram (2) Apple tudio Monitors Yes I am seeing this problem. Its random and happens 30% - 50% of the time
  4. its just a conundrum to me. How did they change in the first place. Thank goodness they turned back int VectorWorks files once i renamed them Yes all of my files are in the cloud to allow access from multiple computers
  5. Having the same problem here. Cues disappear at times…. Then they work again a few minutes later. Kind of drives me crazy right now. Jeff
  6. I encountered a similar problem with .swap files. I was going to open a recent file from the iCloud and noticed that it didn’t exist anymore , but a name.swap file was in its place. I renamed the file to .vwx and it turned back into a vwx file inculding the thumbnail image. I did a search for .swap files and found about 100 or so all in my cad folder. Random dates, some I pretty sure I never opened recently. I renamed them all to .vwv and they all returned to Vectorworks files. What the heck? jeff
  7. Thanks all. I wrote this years ago when there was only the Lighting Device record attached to a fixture. Seems i need to modify the check to look at all records now. Thanks for the hint Joshua
  8. I have a VW script that selects objects based on the data in the "lighting device" record. I root out other items by making sure the record "Lighting Device" is attached to keep the script from breaking? Now i see "EntEquipmentUniversal" as the record on a lighting device. Is there a workaround so I can find the handle to "lighting device" so i can grab data? Thanks Jeff
  9. I am working on a project that requires the need to know the weight supported on house beams(s) I know i can just do the math of the multiple points ,but am looking for something a little more dynamic (being able to recalculate if weights change) I need the report to be in pounds Jeff Miller
  10. sorry pat they aren't VW2023 SP3 MAC M1 Ultra Studio w/ Ventura 13.2.1 Ya know it may have been since i updated to Ventura ??
  11. For the past few days when i go to do an Un-Do, the procedure happens but it sends my view to 0,0 paper center. it sure is frustrating to have to go back to where i was Any clues Thanks Jeff Miller
  12. I’m not that deep of a code writer. Do you suggest Turing off developer mode? where is that located thanks jeff
  13. i don't know WTF happened or how they turned into .txt files. i threw an error into the file and closed it , it then showed as a vector-script file. i was able to open and compile it, fixing the error. I had to do this twice to all files with shut downs. on the 3 try they cam back as normal Never seen this before. all is good for now. I am waiting on a response from my colleague who had the same problem Jeff
  14. I see this site will be down on Saturday January 21st, so feel free to email me if you find something Jeff JmillerProductionServices@gmail.com
  15. I have (3) Plug-Ins that are tools. I have used them since 2020. They worked fine in 2023. For some unknown reason they no longer show up in my plug-ins list. When they did between continuous reset they were list as text files? Did the latest service pack change something. I am a beta tester and they do show up and run fine in that version. This is bit dire as a few colleagues are depending on these, and they have disappeared in their work-spaces too Plug-in are attached if anybody can figure out WTF happened I usually don't cry for help but HELP !! Thanks Jeff Data Drop.vso Power Drop.vso Pwr Data Origin.vso
  16. Seems like 12.5, fixed a lot of stuff that should have never happened. Screen freezes on dual monitors has stopped too
  17. I have reported in the thread way above that when using (2) monitors on the M1 ultra the main application screen would freeze (zero fps). unplugging and plunging the monitor woke the screen back up. Frustrating but no data loos. The latest update to the os (12.5) seems to have solved the problem '
  18. Just an FYI I updated to Monterey 12.5 and the screen freezing seems to be fixed. No problems for 2 days now Fingers crossed Jeff
  19. I have the same lock up issue. It's more of a screen freeze for me. If i unplug the monitor and plug it back in the freeze goes away. The render times are incredible though. Jeff
  20. Thanks Kevin. Sounds like plan B for me Different Legends for different Universes Jeff
  21. Is it possible to add a Data Visualization to a container attached to a lighting fixture? I would like to change to the container fill color that holds the Universe/Address data i use to have a fill based on the Universe in use for that fixture ie: Universe 1 = red fill, Universe 2 = Blue fill, etc. I can duplicate and create multiple ledgends w/ different colors, but Data Visualization seems much more robust i can change the entire fixture with Data Visualization but i don't want to do that. moving lights look so much alike now, I have to color code the instruments so techs can tell one fixture from another Any Clues? Thanks In Advance Jeff
