  1. anybody knows how to access the stories setup when you already have floors drawn? this is so complicated now/ Also, can someone explain tome what is the difference between aligned layers and, what is the other one? yes, unified view? Thank you Gosh vectorworks just crashed!
  2. what is that another plugin that you need to buy? incredible, how much is it?
  3. i agree, this software has become just a nightmare of complications
  4. this video http://download2.nemetschek.net/www_movies/2010/Sustainable.mov
  5. Nemetschek has great videos on Bim showing reports that would be of great use to many of us. Why do they not sell these or make them available as part of the upgrades? that would be worth the costs don't you agree?
  6. I am looking to create a report of new spaces versus existing spaces but I cannot find the right name for the column that would help in sorting the spaces in the report and following with the addition of the new spaces. Any idea how to organize the drawings? Thank you
  7. I am working on a very small project designing a couple of decks. My problem is that I started with vectorworks in 3D and moved to sketchup which I find easier and then came back to 2D with VW to finaly rework in 3D in VW. This is crazy and I am very frustrated with this. How do you handle this type of projects, all in 2D, in design layers vs. viewports? At what point do you stop the work in 3D if ever? Do you draw in 2D over the 3D in viewports? Please help! Thank you
  8. I use these with control points usually in elevations in 2D not in 3D but it makes sense that it would appear backward if you look at it from behind. Is that not the case ?
  9. Alright, here it is, Thank you very much for looking at it CF
  10. My dimensions have no text, only the lines Any idea?
  11. I remember years ago when I placed a 2D locus, there were extension lines to snap to. Did this go away or do I need to change my setup? Please advise Best to all CF
  12. anybody knows where to find vectorworks details 2d/3d? thank you
  13. Have you tried the frame roof option? I believe it gives a breakdown list of materials
  14. Cleaning before joining is always a good idea but I recently noticed the same issue. Will forget about this for a while and come back later, i usually find a solution that way. GD LUK
  15. Hi everyone; I have been struggling for years (am I stubborn?) to make the windows pluggin work and represent the reality of what a simple casement/double hung window looks like. With the current graphic definitions of the sill, apron, stool etc.. it is almost impossible for me to get something even close. Anyone in the same boat? Should I not use these options (useful for schedules though) and draw in the wall sections/details in 2D instead? Please advise Thanks CF
  16. I am trying to view a detail (image) on the screen at the size that it will show on paper. Basically, looking at 1/1 like if I was drafting on paper. How do I setup the zoom level? Please advise
  17. I think that you have to have the Alt key pressed when you push/pull
  18. I think I found the answer, you need to have the Alt key pressed when you do the push/pull. Am I correct?
  19. I am trying to push and pull parts of a cube by drawing a square on the top and pushing into the cube to remove the volume but I end up with a separate volume inside the cube which was not cutout at all. What am I doing wrong? Please help Thanks
  20. I cannot subtract or add to an existing volume, it always create a separate volume, what am I doing wrong? Please help
  21. Dear Horst; Super, thank you so much, will try right away

  23. Great idea, I did not know that you could use automator for vectorworks, thanks
  24. What is the best way to design for both Construction drawings and rendering, with tiles patterns or with tile texture or both? Please advise Thank you
