  1. i have all my projects in one folder with multiple subfolders and would like to convert all files so the resource manager can find recourses created in earlier projects. But there are a lot of backup files is it somehow possible to exclude only backup folders and still save in place?
  2. thanks! it must have been that male thing that i cannot see things which don't move...;-))
  3. Every new version i seem to have the same trouble finding the numberstamp tool...or is it gone in 2019??
  4. great i wouldn't have worked that out myselfe!! and yes you become a master of workarrounds in VW...sometimes! keeps one felexible under the helmet;-))
  5. Hi Gadzooks, Thank you ! i was wondering too and thought i am the only person having this strange problem or cann't expain what i mean but i guess nobody could work it out , it somehow doesn't happen on all files but i will try your workarround.... and YES i can reproduce your method!!!!
  6. i have a new problem.... snapping is not working in rendered section viewports anymore. It did before!!! is it a OSX 10.14 Mojave issue? i updated my VW 2018 to the newest built SP5.2 it makes creating deasent plans almost unbareable...! anybody else experiences this problem? i added a file is it working on other maschines or systems? vectorworks bug.vwx
  7. that sort of works if i type a value followed by an appostroph (') and than enter , it changes to the right dimension...
  8. i tried associat dual dimensions but i can't highlight the second dimension to change numeric values
  9. Thanks Nicolas, thats possibel but than i still have to recalculate it by heart...well would have bee too easy than;-)
  10. hi! i am working on my first US project for my german customer and as i am used to metric dimensions now feet are required.....i struggle a little (lot) and it would be helpful to have both metric and feet in the info pallette to compare it. i worked out dual dimenstion and how to tpe in feet dimensions in the objectinfo but than it gets converted to metric and i dont have the feet information anymore....is there a trick?
  11. very good!!! i was waiting for that.... and it looks like it can handle perspective as well..right?
  12. Thanks Matt, i just wanted to show my "workarround" with these 2D png files in screen plane ...worked quite well and is a quick solution for complex forms. As walls are hybrid and a floorplan looks better in 2d etc. i know there are so many demands....hard to please everybody! We'll see!
  13. i really like that...if we do interiors and use realistic chair symbols it was very easy to create a hybrid object with the "render bitmap tool" in open GL and alpa transarency (a bit tricky with resolution and scale though) , where a hidden line was often a fail...would be great to have this option too ,even it has no proper snapping etc....
  14. great!.... and while you do this, could you ask your programmer to have a coloured edges mode as well...;-) (white edge on a black object)
  15. Please !!! make these object editable like solid substraction or addition...... i guess this has been asked for several times but...!!!
  16. hi there Apple announced that there will no more support for OpenGL in the new MacOS.....will this effect openGL render in Vectorworks?? that would be a tragedy for me personally.....
  17. true! if the viewer would give the option to convert to older versions no problem....
  18. it would be great if there would be an fileconverter online used in the browser window.... lets say i got an VW file 2018 but only running VW2017... instead of asking could you please convert and send again. it would be much easier (and cooler) just drag to browserwindow and select the wanted version and download again....

    Thanks Mark!!! i tried all this before and here ...probably with some bad Thursdaymorningkarma id didn't work. the mesh was created of 3d polygons and when you edit (doubleclick) the mesh there are the polygons but it is not possible to add them.... anyway thanks again ill use you geometry...!
