Me to. 🍾

That’s really interesting, maybe the key to this whole thing. That would be great. Thank you

thank you, I will look at you file. I usually fool around with the profile and can get it to the right position but my god what a pain. Certainly interested in looking how you deal with that . thanks for sharing CF

After many years of VW use there is still this command which is incredibly frustrating due to its bad creation process, it is incredible that after such a long availability this command is still incomprehensible. PLEASE FIX THIS ASAP. for example below the profile is connected to the corner of the bottom of the walls and top right of the profile but the resulting object is offset. the profile options do not change anything or make extrusion impossible to create. We need another command very quickly. thank you

I am in the US, would that work for you? VW 2021 my website cfekete.com thank you christian@cfekete.com

Would love to help. Please look at cfekete.com for samples of my work. if interested please call directly, my number is (845) 625-3189 thank you very much CHristian Fekete

Yes I did by opening the file in 2021 but I was not able to have the styles part of the new file with the others which load automatically. I will fiddle with that a bit more. Style is great though. thanks for following up

@Andy Broomell Andy, I downloaded the 202 renderwork style on your website, thank you. My question is how to make those available in 2021 resources

I tried that but the resource is not available in a new 2021 file. I think the render works file need to be in the renderworks style folder of the 2021 library defaults and moving the 2020 style to that folder does not work.

What is the process to migrate a 2020 renderworks style into 2021?

Thank you for all your help, will wait

@Matt Panzer Here is another simplified model for you to look at. When you open the drawing you will find selected, a ghosted piece of lumber, but this item and others will show up in wireframe mode. This ghosted lumber piece shows as a solid addition. When you open it and try to close it that there is a message indicating an impossible addition. This may be an issue but what about the other missing items, I have other files with entire parts of drawings showing the same (or rather not showing ). Could it be an issue with OpenGL rendering?Untitled 1.vwx

If you are talking about topo, in sketchup at least when you download a google earth map view you get the rough topographical information (don't remember the height differences between curves, sorry), then you can import the topo into VW either as a 3D or just the topo curves. Works fairly well although it's a process. Good luck If you are talking about 3D buildings I think you can go through a similar process but if I remember correctly the buildings will come as 3D meshes which is less than ideal but that was 3yrs ago since I did that myself

This happens on different files, this is not always the same process I go through but in both cases when I change views from VP to design layer or from floor plan to 3D open GL. Generally looking at 3D

@Matt Panzer this is an ongoing issue with my latest 2021 drawings. Should I reinstall?

I also found in previous file that grouping and ungrouping geometry will achieve the same fyi

@michaelk yes I do see it in your file, thank you. How did this change?

@Matt Panzer Matt, here is a simple file with a fridge provided by VW. It shows in plan but i no other views. Can you explain how to change that? Thank you SPACE PLANNING.vwx

I think it is a good way to do that, it is pretty easy process

How do I control the visibility of classes in a viewport directed to a design layer object which is a referenced drawing? I am not able to see the classes in that reference drawing. The alternative would be to go into the design layer and turn that class off by selecting the referenced item but I am wandering if I would loose that visibility in other viewports which refer to the same object. Maybe I could copy this reference to another layer and work from there; would that add a lot of memory to my file size? I am not sure what the best approach is, please advise . In the image below I would like to not see the plywood in the bracket detail

I think this was resolved with 2020 but it is showing up in 2021. Is there a solution to these items formatting? The second line of text overlaps the symbol

hmm, I probably lost those when i updated to 2021, will try again, thank you

@Andy Broomell This does not seem to be working though, I do not see the new marker in following files, that would seem to be easily included in the vectorworks standards options

I understand and I do that right now but it would be great not to have to look in a past drawing but to have it available in the list of markers.

thank you for the new easy switch between the various spaces from the inside of a viewport, what a great enhancement !!! thank you
