  1. super cool, can't wait to try that, thank you
  2. I'm just gunna go there and say exporting everything in the background would be the preferred and logical option
  3. Maybe I am missing what it is you're trying to accomplish. Is the issue keeping the 2D plant symbol connected to the image prop? If so, that's a something I know nothing about sry. I have attached a vwx showing how I did what I did, which it turns out might NOT be what you need after all. IMAGE PROP SCALING PER INSTANCE [M2].vwx
  4. When I did this, I scaled the individual tree symbols on the drawing per instance, left them as they were in the resource mgr.
  5. On quick whim, I put a couple image prop trees on document, extruded a 67' object & scaled both trees in the OIP, either symmetrically or assymmetrically, easy peasy, with the scale button near
  6. Nothing was lost to me, just the OS, apparently! I re-saved w new name, restarted and it made a magic reappearance! Reassuring, but not, somehow.
  7. @grant_PD Just so satisfying to look at. Appreciate the more expansive view.
  8. Criminy. I rejoice in my (knock on wood) lack of LAN problems, sorry for your.
  9. Not sure what's going on here w my brand new M5 +64GB ram, but that just looks wack as uh darn.

    Resource Manager

    It tripped me up big time the first encounter w it.
  11. @Tom W. Are you on an M5 processor?
  12. ilovepdf.com is a great tool, greatly compresses almost everything I throw at it - drawing sets, renders, all the usual office documents etc. It's visual quality is better than most, including Adobe Acrobat online Am a real fan
  13. personally, I might export to DXF / DWG
  14. maybe: https://www.verysmallgroup.com/theaterow Works very well for me, but have not tried it on a multi-thousand seat venue.
  15. Just to throw out I'm on an M1 Pro Max 32GB unified & Vectorworks regularly lags. While rendering, RAM usage goes well past the 32 GB, which means caching etc. Most rendering is slow - I mostly use a variety of Red Shift Render Styles & occasionally I'lll use Shaded, but that always means a re-light, which is a gigantic pain in the po-po.

    RS view turns black

    Thanks @Dave Donley. I achieved the same crash result as OP. Glad you found a solution & great trick to determine the image dpi

    RS view turns black

    each time I try to render this model VWX 2026 SP 4 crashes to the desktop
  18. it happens w such alarming regularity that I've switched over to almost all rendering done in viewports / sheet layers
  19. The fog background to me is the more theoretically accurate solution - as if my DF50 ran for 30 minutes from the midbridge w the Main in and no weird air currents pulling to SL or FOH or out thru the shop or what idiot left the roof hatches open…😅
  20. consider making a template file containing only those layers, classes, resources you actively use.
