  1. Yeah. I have reached out to them. Waiting on them to reply on next steps. I checked the other thread you mentioned Pat. I did the repair in the advanced options and it said it fixed 1 file, but still won't update. Hopefully they will have a solution to fix my problem.

  2. I am trying to update Vectorworks 2024 to the latest 2.1 update using the updater app. It tells me to quit Vectorworks and then click "Start" which I do. However, that message continuously comes up even though the program is not running and the update never happens. Any ideas on what to do?

  3. Hello everyone. How would you all model this roof? The larger portion of the upper roof is 2:12 and slopes according to the arrows. The two circled areas are 2:12 and do slope at that same angle as the main portion but need to be flared up also with the slope direction of the arrows on their faces. So I literally have a roof face that is angled/sloped in two directions with a valley between the two. I cannot for the life of me figure out the way to do this. Any help is greatly appreciated.

  4. Can anyone tell me the best way to model a steel frame building like this one? I know the structural framing member tool allows you to select different framing members, but I don't see any that match the tapered columns and main frame rafters like the one in this example. I assume they have to be modeled?

  5. Ok, I don't know what I have done, but I cannot select anything. I have layer options set to "Show/Snap/Modify Other" and I am in Top/Plan view and I am on the main floor level. I can draw new objects and select and modify them, but all other items cannot be selected, modified or moved. Is there something that locks all items. Please help!!!

  6. Hello everyone,

     

    I apologize if this has already been asked. I have downloaded an STL file from Thingverse and I want to be able to edit the file and manipulate it. Is there a procedure to do this in VW? Do I need to convert the file to something first?

  7. Ok, I thought I did do a refresh, but will check. I am not sure about the TBB styles, I will have to look up to see if they are indeed that symbol type or even how to specify them as that. When I get home from work this evening I will post the sample file.
