[Dutch Hip Grayed Out]

try it in a new file, i have had the same problem but could make the roof in a seperate file and copy and paste

[Where are my backup files]

upgrading to sp2 might help, i have seen that same problem when i moved to lion but all is well now

[Baffling error just came up out of nowhere ...]

reinstall?

[AR-works]

Bought the AR plug in, it is definitely a faster generator of 3D models then export VR object (which became useless) and the live section and layer/class selection gives it a nice extra.

The youtube video shows everything nicely happening on your desk, but the iMac cam is not suitable, meaning I do not get the model on the table, does anyone have success? Also I my magic mouse is useless for zooming I tried old mighty but only slightly better.

So anyone else splurged the $300?

[Creating new Screen Image??]

right click in the resource browser (make sure that you are in the correct file by clicking on the little house button) and choose new image, a window will open, find your jpg ......

[Background selectable lucid]

Are your layers to the same scale? and make sure show, snap others is set

[Background selectable lucid]

I think it means transparency but further i am no help either

Box ticked in VW prefs?

[Possible major bug]

This is a part answer relating only to orientation

To stop the end of the text bumping into the start put some spaces at the end

[Associate Dimensions]

Ticked the right boxes?

[Property Line]

You're right did not check the Ha bit is only at the bottom of the OIP and I also get a strange extra tail to my hectare which I definitely not put in.

Extra tail only happens if one continues the property line till the end, if one let the last segment happen then this tail does not appear

[Re wall component render]

Oz-Cad pointed me in the right direction, the component class render to be set in "other" tab and when overriding class in a VP use the center tab of Walls

Change your units to a custom setting

[Export 2012 to 2010]

yes i know, i just wanted it confirmed it is a bug not just my machine

[Export 2012 to 2010]

When I export from 2012 to 2010 I lose half the roof can anyone duplicate this?

[resize my sketch]

you mean you imported a sketch as pdf or jpeg? draw a rectangle around your sketch and create a viewport on a sheet layer and scale to fit.

[Why are walls joining capping components?]

there is a tick box in the wall attribute palette when editing wall styles

[section viewport]

at the bottom of the section VP oip you'll see the button attributes (sorry don't know the dutch word for it) you'l see several possibilities there

[Hatch behaviors and settings]

clip surface

[Export to User Folder]

Your user library will have to be a VW file within that folder

similar to any favourite file in VW library

[Applying Color to my 3D wall]

If the wall is unstyled you can give it a coloured fill in the attribute palette which will show in 3D when rendered.

Alternatively you can create a colour texture right click in your resource browser see screen shots and apply the texture to selected wall side

[2012 VR objects]

Not clear to me why it is still available as an option when in reality it is useless. Tried in 2012 VW crashed after exporting 550mb of unfinished movie, this was openable with QT7 but not manipulatable.

Exported the file to VW2010 to find parts of the roof missing and not to be found in that file.

Reexported VW2012 to VW2011 and from there to VW2010 (roof stayed intact) exported VR 45mb

[importing PDF's to re-create lost files]

it is the best i can suggest, import the pdfs and create viewports which you are then able to annotate.

you can also ungroup your pdf back into lines
