@zoomer I have been toiling with levels and stories for this simple bungalow that i am designing but it is not that simple. in particular where the bottom of walls and doors is located. IT IS quite challenging for me. Can you explain the best workflow to make sure the wall is sitting on a subfloor while the door opening starts on the finish floor? Thank you that will be a great help if I can figure this out. BEst CF

what does flattened display do?

what about creating a marionette script, can't you create these constraints there?

You could organize the house types on separate files and load them as symbols so that you can save space and update all of them at once but I would keep the site plan separate, these tend to be heavy.

This is a long discussion, I work in 3D and try to create BIM reports from the model. Details are created and annotated on viewports from the model. Suggestion: go to the vectorworks Youtube channel there is a lot of videos on this, good luck

that simple! great, thanks

you need to create three viewports, one with the floor plan and two with elevations, finally rotate the side view to align with the floor plan and voila

How about creating a wall type with a transparent or white 2.5" component to bring it to 6" but with no line, as follows, it is easier than creating a symbol, there is not return at the jambs though

thank you, it worked, moving on to the next one Best Regards

Pat, I am going through the guide at developer.vectorworks.net and I am excited to start learning vectorscript. Q: In the following script it seems to me that I should see or hear a message but nothing happens that I can see other than the submenus becoming inactive and then reactivating. Am I not seeing something or do I need to do something in order to see something? Here is the script: PROCEDURE Example_1; CONST {capitalized to distinguish them from variables} LOCAL_GREETING_ENGLISH = 'Hello '; LOCAL_GREETING_FRENCH = 'Bonjour '; VAR s:STRING; i:INTEGER; BEGIN s:='VectorScript'; i:=2; Message(LOCAL_GREETING_ENGLISH,s); Wait(i); ClrMessage; END; Run(Example_1);

Thanks Michael, just saw your webcast and I was looking for these resources, can't believe I found them here, Thanks again, great help

can someone indicate me where to go to learn vectorscript?

Can someone help me add a column within a framing member report that would show the framing member class for each member? Thank you

thank you, the text style was the issue. Best CF

Here is what my drawing titles look like in VW17 IS there a setup that I am missing? Thank you

OK I found a solution with switching 2D/3D option in the OI back and forth it updates finally.

When I update the 3D object constituting the AutoHybrid object, the 2D object does not update, weird. It is a bench < 4' high, no above or below special objects. Am I missing something?

Thank you Pat, I downloaded the resources again and it solved the issue, looks like I opted out of the option originaly. Best

this operation could not be performed because the file named "_default Hatches.vwx" could not be found This is the message I get when trying to use a hatch for concrete that I see in the resources manager. I downloaded and installed all resources from VW but I still am not able to use the hatch. What do I need to do?

Hi everyone, wish you all a happy new year and plenty of rewarding projects to all. Here is my question, I have seen these beautiful shoes in NY and I was wandering how to model such freeforms. I don't have much experience with other than architecture wall, windows etc.. but would like to move on to beign able to do that. ANy suggestion would be greatly appreciated. Best CF

my understanding was that it was possible to get a fill color in hiddenlines, I must have misunderstood Thank you

Please take a look at this wall, the hatch (brick modular running bond HF-2) wall.vwxas defined in the renderworks associated hatch has a fill but not the rendered (hidden lines) version. How can I fix this? VWX file attached Thanks in advance

@markddsoft shadows was turned off but it did not improve the edges of the shadows

I can shadows on and will change that. Thank you

I followed artistic style background and hidden lines foreground but the shadows edges are pixelated, How can I get these edges sharper? Thanks
