  1. Christiaan, The file should be created at the location you choose. You need to save a seperate Layer and class file. The file is created once you click OK on the save dialog, but the file will be empty till you complete the command. Send the file and a description of the problem to tech@nemetschek.net so they can have a look at if you still have a problem.
  2. All plig-in objects that do not have "Special" dialogs created to edit the objects will give you this message when you double click oon them. If you are not double clicking on the object and see this message please send the file and a description of the problem to bugsubmit@nemetschek.net.
  3. Check for the file in your user folder. Windows: C:\Documents and Settings\<UserName>\Application Data\Nemetschek\VectorWorks\12 Mac: Users:<UserName>Library:Application Support:VectorWorks:12:
  4. Yes, Rosetta may be the problem. There is an FAQ on the website about 12.0.1 and Rosetta that lists all the known problems, but not no official testing has been done with 11.5.
  5. In general to reduce the file size. #1 Turn off Save viewport cache if you have viewports, then compress the file.
  6. It sounds like it may be rendering problem with some geometry in that room. Send the file and a description of the problem to tech@nemetschek.net and we will take a look at it.
  7. It looks like both layer and class names are limited to 20 characters. Please submit a bug report.
  8. Did you install Quicktime? What error message do you get?
  9. Which rendering mode are you using? Have you tried a differnt Gobo that you know works in another room? Are you using the same instruments in this room as the other rooms? Is there something in front of the light? Rendering in fast Renderworks will often show the light, but it will not render the Gobo. Only Final Quality Renderworks will show the projected Gobo.
  10. If you specify the extension as part of the file name it will automatically remove the .txt.
  11. A few things to try reset your user origin, amke sure all your layers are at the same scale, and make sure you have the classes turned on. Also check to see that there are no instrument way off the page. If you still have problems send the file and a description of the problem to tech@nemetschek.net
  12. You should simply need to assign the text size to the dimmer tag while you are editing the label legend, then exit and refresh instruments. As a test you can assign a color to the dimmer tag in the label legend manager and make sure the text on the labels changes when you refresh. If that doesn't work you can send the file to tech@nemetschek.net for them to take a look at.
  13. It sounds like there is some extra data in the text file. The comand will read all the data between the last coma and the <eoln> character and use it as the third data point. If it contains something other then a vaild number, the command will produce the error. Try opening the file in a text editor that will chao wal the hidden characters and see what extra data is there, or copy and paste all the data into a simple text file and see if that clears things up.
  14. What version and platform are you using? I tried it with the 14 data points you listed on 12.0.1 in windows and it worked fine.
  15. There is a limit to the number of label legends, I think is about 50 in 12.0.1. You can move label legends in and out of the label legend folder. The instruments will still use the label legend, but some commands will not find them if they are not in the label legend folder.
  16. You probably have entered "Light" in the Inst Type filed of the light info record. Device Type in the light info record should say "Light" and the Inst Type field should be a sescription of the light. Whenever you replace a light the information from the light inof record is used to update the lighting device.
  17. The lighting instrument is blocking the light from the gobo projector.You either need to move the lighting instrument or move the gobo projector.
  18. Tom, Your code should look something like this to recalculate the worksheet named Floorplan1. ....... wsHand := GetObject('Floorplan1'); wsImageHand := GetWSImage(wsHand); RecalculateWS(wsHand); ResetObject(wsHand); If wsImageHand<>NIL then ResetObject(wsImageHand ); ...... Kevin
  19. Try calling RecalculateWS AND ResetObject on the worksheet handle. If there is a worksheet image in the drawing then you will also need to call a ResetObject on the worksheet image. Also the worksheet will probably not recalculate while your script is running, so if you are trying to update the worksheet and export it in the scame script it probably will not work.
  20. It is placed in: C:\Documents and Settings\<USERNAME>\Application Data\Nemetschek\VectorWorks\12 which may be a hidden folder. This will be fixed in the next update.
  21. Are there any .sta files in your Templates folder? If the folder is empty you will just get a new blank document.
  22. Try resetting the user origin and see if that fixes the problem.
  23. Just insert the three symbols, don't convert them to instruments. Create a sumbol from those three symbols. Now use the instrument insertion tool to insert the big symbol.
  24. Turn off the non-plot calss? Any loci that ship with the symbols are placed in the Non-Plot class.
  25. Make the symbol as you normaly would with the attatched data record for each cell(part). Then insert the symbol cells (parts) into the document and make a symbol of those symbols. The trick is that the multi circuit symbol can ONLY contain other symbols, no text or graphics.
