As far as I know it is not possible to run VW without Quicktime. You may not need the player or the codecs, but there are other components of Quicktime that VW requires.

No, the editable worksheet is just text in the worksheet. You can not edit data in database rows. Database rows are read only.
-
You can only sort database rows on a worksheet.
-
No, Each cell can have it's own set of values.

The data in the light info record attatched to the symbol has the word "Light" in the Inst Type field rather then L&E 3 Circuit Ministrip and the beam and field angle of the light are blank.

Yes, the problem is that you have instruments selected on a layer that is turned off. Set all your layers to visable and layer options to show/Snap/Modify deselect everything, then go back to the previous settings. This will be fixed for the next update.
-
If you have Architect you can use Modify Layers and Classes, (Class and Layer Mapping in V12)
You will have to set it up once then you can recall the settings on the new files.

Deselect the instrument and select the instrument again. I have seen times when the OIP doesn't redraw.
-
There is no 3-fer, you can simply place mutiple 2-fers to create a 3-fer.

The undo bug was fixed with the 12.0.1 update.

Open the label legend manager. Select the Purpose field, notice that the right reading check box is checked. Select the color, notice that right reading is checked. This is why the Purpose label and the color label act differently.

Patrick,
Send the file to Tech@Nemetschek.net. I'm off to USITT this week. Tech support should be able to take a look at it and tell you what's going on.

Jim,
The Purpose is set to not be right reading, and rotated 90 in the LL. When which means that the text rotates with the instrument. So the instrument is rotated 90, the Purpose text is rotated 90. Where as the Color is set to Right Reading, so even though the instrument is rotated at 90, the text maintains its original rotation.
If you are trying to get the information to always appear upstage or downstage of the instrument, that's different.
The spacing problem is a know issue with the instrument key. The Key is a simple group that you can edit to rearrange the information.

The symbol within the repetitive unit is probably assigned to the none calss. Edit the symbol and change the calss of the objects.
Once you create the viewport, edit the crop and set the pen of the crop to none. There was also a script posted on the BB or on the list serve recently that will automate the process.
-
Send it to me directly (if you still have my email adress) or send it to tech@nemetschek.net to my attention.

Sent the offending files to tech@nemetschek.net ATTN: Kevin and we will take a look at them.
Send the good file as well as the bad file. If you save it locallt to the windows machine can you open it back up? or is the problem only when you try to open it again on the mac?

Head over to to the ESP Vision site www.espvision.com or http://www.espvision.com/forums/
They provide support for the plug-ins.
I had a similar problem because the vision pref file in VW was not pointing to the right place.
They are on wast coast time, and their support tech is online.

The export plugins are supplied by ESP vision and are available on their website. www.espvision.com The plugin for the Mac may still be in the beta, check with ESP for the details.

If you place a label in front of the instrument it should always appear in front of the instrument. If it is not doing this, please submit the problem to bugsubmit@nemetschek.net. It should work as the same as previous versions.
It should not be necessary, nor is it advisable, to rotate the instrument in the lable legend manager. This will only cause the labels to be placed at odd positions around the instrument.
-
No, objects inside of groups will not be exported.
-
The problem of numbering units that are selected on a non-editable layer has been fixed for the next update.

The easiest way would be to scale the symbol, or make a duplicate symbol and scale it. You can use Find and Modify to swap out the symbols in the lighting Device.
If you have not manually moved the labels of the instrument, changing the original symbol then running the refresh instruments command should update all the instruments and move the labels into the proper position.

You need to do several things.
Export as a tab delimited file.
All balanks enpty fields must contain a - (dash)
Excel adds extra quotes, so things like 6" Fres are exported as "6"" Fres". So many istruments will trun into rectangles.
-

? Drawing number (i.e., ?1 of 4?)
? Predominant scale of the drawing
? Date the plate was drafted

Additional information may include:
? Location of the venue
? Director of the production
? Other members of the production team
? Lighting assistant and/or Master Electrician
? Date and revision number
? Approval of the drawing
? Contact information (telephone and fax numbers,
e-mail addresses)
USITT RP-2 (revision 5), Recommended Practice for Theatrical Lighting Design Graphics is still open for public review and comment. It is available at http://www.usitt.org/standards/UsittRP-2v5.html
