[can't seem to figure out where to adjust font/size of dims!]

select the dimension and alter font and size in text in the menubar

text default is set there

[Are Scaleable 3D plants/ bushes available?]

in VW 2011 symbols are scalable so you can scale a tree down or shrub up

[OpenGL]

I had does lines since edges became available I do not know what OS it was then

[Rendering plans]

You could make first an elevation viewport and then a section viewport of that vp see attached file

[OpenGL]

I always had those lines specially when there was a cut hole in the object so pretty useless

[Can you install Service Pack without deleting customized VW settings?]

Your customized stuff should be parked in your home folder anything there will not be overwritten on a PC it should be something similar

[Exporting VRs?]

We will have to wait for oz update, but is it properly fixed or is it still 700+ mb?

[Exporting VRs?]

Hi reported this problem shortly after starting with VW2011 I was provided with a fix by the techies and OzCad which was a Cinema 4D QT agent to replace existing one it works but a QT VR object in 2010 would be 10-15 MB in 2011 it is 700MB + so I export back to 2010 to make the VR object if required.

I can provide you with the fix if you send me an email

[Selection Key odd behavior]

(It seems that it occurs especially when Vectorworks and Cinema 4D are used together.)

If that is the case would unticking the prefs (Allow option-click in-place duplication) help

[Modelling a cockpit from airplane in 3d ? rounded organic shapes]

Check out 3D power pack in VW help

[Circle in design layer becomes octagon in viewport.]

Set your 3D conversion resolution to very high in VW prefs

[render - noise on objects]

check if you are not doubling up somewhere, 2 walls in the same place or 2 layers.

[Thanks]

Thanks for fixing my Export VR object bug

[Hatches not showing in Viewport]

if you are working in 2D make sure you are also in top/plan in your VP

stick to it

[End caps]

The end caps corresponded to the layer thickness ignoring the sloping wall but indeed it is fixed in SP2 thank you

[End caps]

Is this end-cap farce fixed in SP2 ?

[Circular Text]

Convert your circle to polygons and it will work

[Screen/Layer Plane Switching]

Would that be quicker then this?

[3D Elevations to 2D]

Ar what stage do you convert to 2D? Convert to lines/polygons is not greyed out for me.

[Roof tool in 2011]

I think if you give it a go you'll find it gives you exactly what you want I created a quick easily checked roof and it gave me the correct answers just try it

[VR Object]

that is ginormous & ridiculous, I'll buy some more ram and see thanks Mike

[VR Object]

when I try to open the file with QT 7 it tells me it is not a movie file and it is 0 kb, when instigating the export it does it in 5 seconds one render and finished, is there some new setting somewhere?

[VR Object]

the export Quicktime VR object menu item is still there but it exports nothing, I can export the file to 2010 and I can export it from there but, if the VR object was scrapped why is the menu still there?

[Open GL & FQRW]

Thanks Benson, I was just extremely frustrated about the amount of time I spent on fixing that problem.
