  1. Does anyone know of any good energy and daylight modeling software that is friendly with Vectorworks? Thanks Brian
  2. I understand referencing layers into other drawings. My firm has been doing this for a while now. However I have not heard of Design Layer Viewports. I'll look into this on Monday and see what that does. Thanks Brian

    BIM

    The firm I work for is trying to integrate BIM into our project. I would love to hear how other people organize there projects around BIM. Typically we have medium size projects, mostly schools, with three to four people working on one project. From what we understand about Vectorworks BIM, we will most likely divide a building up into several "Chunks" and one person would work on plan section and elevation for there portion of the building. Someone else (who wouldn't have to touch the BIM model) would be responsible for detailing. Does this sound like the right approach. Also it is my understanding that only one person can be working on the BIM model. Can someone confirm that? Is Vector works working on some sort of multiple user capability? I think Revit has this capability. Thanks Brian
  4. Great that works fine, although I changed the second line to be able to go from 50% back to 100% SetPrefReal(70, 1); { = 100% } Is there a way to change the page size too? At 100% my page size is 30"x42", and at 50% its 18"x24" Also where can I get a list that shows all the Pref's and #'s? I looked all over help and couldn't find it. Thanks I'm new to vector scrips, it'a a little confusing
  5. I didn't know about that feature. I'll check this out. Although I would like to take a shot at automating this with a script.
  6. Yes this is for printing only. It is common for me to print at drawing at 100% and then have to print a 50% drawing later. It takes several setps to change the scale of a drawing for printing. I am hoping to get a faster way to do this.
  7. Does anyone know of a script, or how I might write one, that would change the drawing size by 50%.
