well, it turns out that deleting the preferences file did not help after all (the problem returned). I installed SP2, and that seems to have worked (so far).

Spoke with the folks at Nemetschek tech support. they looked at my file but could not recreate the problem, Ultimately they suggested that I go into my settings folder and delete the VectorWorks Preferences.XML file C:> Program Files (x86)> Vectorworks2012 > Settings > VectorWorks Preferences.XML Rebooted the program and now all is fine (or at least it seems that way). will look into Kevin suggestion above about updating to SP2.

Hi I am on SP1. The program tells me that I am up to date when I use the search for update function. interesting. I'll look for Sp2 in the downloads area. thanks

Hi Steve, Thanks for the suggestion, I just looked but "Allow ctrl-click in-place duplication" is off. best, Tim

Just encountered something new which has me puzzled, whenever I move a lighting unit to a different layer a duplicate of that unit is also created. It seems to occur in all the drawings I open, and this is a new problem which I've just discovered today. Any thoughts as to why this is, or suggestions as to how I can stop it would certainly be appreciated. (Running spotlight on 2012). Thanks.

Hi, I?m running VW 12 on a PC and the label legend seems to be freaking out on me. If I try to assign a unit number, nothing is displayed. If I attempt to provide a channel number, the container (a circle) moves into the center of the unit, and a number is not displayed. I thought the error might somehow be connected to the file, but if I open an older drawing and try to change an existing channel or unit number, the same error occurs. Does anyone have a thought as to what the problem might be? I?ve tried changing the class from Label_Channel to None I?ve tried creating new label legends. I?ve tried creating new drawings Any help would be appreciated. Thank you, Tim
