@Abigail_ , I think Jeff Prince offers some very good suggestions. Consider the use of templates as well as styled elements. You might also read "Model Set-Up" that's pinned to the top of the Architecture section here on the forum...you can then compare that with "No Stories, No Problem" to help you gain an understanding of how and why you may consider using or not using these elements. Keep in mind that CLASSES are all about the attributes of an object - be it 2D or 3D - line weight, color, texture, hatch. And please, don't be afraid to post up here if something isn't working out for you - there are some very bright folks who can help clarify concepts. Welcome to the community! Wes

@Anders Blomberg - at the moment, the Data Tag only "knows" the elevation of the bounding box so it really can't tell an elevation except at the top and bottom... Wes

@liam.h.b.shaffer how about trying a viewport...use the Create Viewport command and place the plan on a sheet layer, then use the rotate tool and rotate the viewport 15 degrees, then print Wes

@Tom W. , could you post a small sample file where this occurs? I'm not sure I have an answer but might stumble onto something??? Wes

Like this...it uses the GetSpaceNameforObj and GetSpaceNumforObj BTW, this file, Gallery 196 is posted on Vectorworks University if you'd like to see it "in action." https://university.vectorworks.net/mod/page/view.php?id=674

Here's a 24 x 36 sheet rendered at 600 dpi....it's pretty clear... Wes

I get pretty good renderings but they do take a while...even so, if you zoom in, it will pixelate...

To do any investigative work, I'd need an actual vwx file

@Rcox, You can post up a sample here and someone can have a go at it. Wes

You might want to look at Vectorworks University for workflows.

@Mi&D, Hi there...yes, if they are inclined that will happen - Vectorworks cannot produce canted walls. Your best bet is to either model them from extrudes or try a roof face. If you can't get the 3D polys to behave, you may be able to edit the 3D poly and get to the 2D poly that made it (or trace a 2D poly)? If so, I would then try either roof faces of extrudes. Wes

@willofmaine...not sure that you can other than placing the tag "inside" the symbol...I think I'd use STYLED windows Wes

@Cammareri Landscapes - maybe a Vectorworks Preferences thing - General-Background-3D Views - in the attched image, mine is set to white... Wes

@Vesa...not a stupid question at all...I believe the name is the computer's name? Wes

@Markvl, yup, problem is still there...I'll submit a bug...I tried it in a new blank file with a completely UNSTYLED wall and it seemed OK...obviously not! Thank you for bringing this to our attention Wes

@Markvl. I can't get it to mess up in '21...can you attach a messed up file ? Wes

@Ramon PG, here it is in V 2016 format Wes Ugly House Layer Bound v2016.vwx

@Ramon PG, Tech Support may be able to help you with that...

@Vesa maybe this can help from Vectorworks University https://university.vectorworks.net/mod/scorm/player.php?a=343&currentorg=articulate_rise&scoid=686

Maybe "Import Point Cloud"...I'm guessing here...or these file formats https://app-help.vectorworks.net/2021/eng/index.htm#t=VW2021_Guide%2FImport%2FImporting_a_point_cloud_object.htm&rhsearch=Import Point cloud&rhhlterm=Import Point cloud&rhsyns= Wes

Take a look at this... 18_VW00279_Workflow_Doc_NURBS_101_horizontal.pdf

@Ramon PG, here's the file in 2017 format... Wes Ugly House Layer Bound v2017.vwx

Hi, Take a look at this file's wall styles, then look at the classes that control them and look at sheet A1.1 where class overrides is shown Wes Ugly House Layer Bound.vwx

Make sure the CLASS for the grids is ON in your viewport(s)

Could very well be a bug...at first I thought the yellow/green band was your fascia
