Thank you very much everyone for your help. I think I found the answer on the knowledge base section. I followed the reset actions recommended and at least VW restarts now. My latest file and its backups seem to have issue though. Here is the link with the knowledge base article (nice to at least get back working): http://kbase.vectorworks.net/questions/1099/Resetting+Vectorworks+Preferences#OSX%20107-108 Again, thank you to everyone for your time trying to help, very much appreciated. Best to all

Thanks for your help Can't find application support folder, I have an "applications " folder but it's empty I don't think I have so much valuables anyway that was modified from the original install. Can I just reinstall VW? How Should I do that?

I think that the issue is with the file that VW tries to open on startup up. It tries to read file " and then "verify file" and back and forth and then crashes. Is this a template? Any idea where to look for this file?

I can't even start VW which crashes after trying to load a startup file. It looks like I need to reinstall it and see if the file will reopen. Could VW be corrupted?

I cannot open my file, VW just crashed and will not open anymore. It tries to find a backup file and hangs up during initial setup. I tried with the latest file and just restarting VW w/o opening a specific file but it looks for something that it cannot find. Please help Thank you

This is the second time this happens to me, when I insert a window VW sets it up at the end of the walls, half way in the corner Any thing I am doing wrong?

Thanks Jonathan, always helpful Best Christian

I would like to render my floor plan with shadows, cutting the walls at about 3' high but it seems that the doors disappear showing the full wall height. Is there a way to do that? Also, is there a rendering style for a quick white board rendering that I can use just to get the shadows on a floor plan?

VW tells me that I am current. Just closed properly, go figure. Thanks

Thanks to all for your helpful responses

I tried with the architect template that comes with VW and windows insert properly. Would I have created a constraint in my template? Where should I look? Puzzled

Can I ask why you're selling VW?

Have you looked at the tutorials online? Let me know if you don't get any answer. I am not in NYC but upstate and could be interested in helping you. Let's talk, my number is 845-625-3189

if I understand correctly the layer height gives the story height but you can change them in the Layer setup also

I would really like to see a video on how to use circuits and what we can expect to do with them, reports etc.. Thanks

It worked beautifully, thank you :-)

Very nice work indeed! I worked it out with a wall recess but the frame is not there. I guess I'll have to look at the wall hole notion. Never used it before. Thank you it is very helpful

I would like to create a symbol of a round door that is called moon door in chinese. It is an open round framed opening. Here is my result with creating it. As you can see it is less than what I was expected from the imaged reference. Could anyone suggest a fix or a better way to do this?

Will try thank you
