To all you smart people, I am having an issue with two setups that should be controllable but where I have been stuck for some time now, resolving for one as a cut and paste and the other one which I cannot resolve really. 1/ The CALLOUT SHOULDER LENGTH, comes with a preset length of 96' ... too long, I would like to setup the callout so that it comes with a 2' shoulder 2/ The ELEVATION BENCHMARK text offset seems to be off on both right and left justification. (see below) Thank you for the help CF

OMG I thought I did that, thank you for clarifying, what a relief. This little movie is great, how do you do that?

Hi Everyone, I have an issue with wall recess features in this particular drawing I am working on. I got it working many times before but this one is giving me trouble. Here is the screen shot of the file and I will attach the vwx file also. Thanks for taking the time to review Best Christian Untitled 4.vwx

thank you

I was wandering how to extract a specific page layout from a file, i.e. front page of a bldg permit set, as a template page. Do I need to delete all the other pages and then purge the file first or do I create a symbol and export to a favorite template folder? Please advise. Thank you CF

thank you, I didn’t know this. 🧐

In the elevation below you can see that the panel vertical seams don't line-up. Is there a way to line these up?

Thanks for your help, it looks like things got better without me doing anything just giving it some time! Like other things in life. Appreciate willingness to help CF

Can anyone explain to me the consequence of moving the page origin or the page location on a new layer vis a vis of the existing layers and if there is an issue related to the ability to see the drawing when moving from one layer to another one with the command down arrow. Thank you

the file upload is triped at 40+- Megs, file may be too big

Hi Matt, I can do that but I don't remember what channel to use to do that... Thx

Here is a screen shot of a Edit section viewport view. Only part of it is showing. Is this a glitch or do I need to check on something. The elevation viewport edit seems to be working but the graphics quality is very poor

Got it, thank you. It appears this is another quintessential vectorworks flavor which does not give you the option if you right click on the instance on the drawing. ♻️

I have seen these before and it makes it difficult to share, how do you get rid of these outline ghosts? It is interesting to note that the silhouette appears on the roof layer only (it appears so far)

My fridges do not stick to walls, how can i modify my symbol to do that?

Can someone help me resolve the issue of not seeing the filled section when I move the edge of the clip cube through the model attached? Much appreciated Thanks CF clip cube missing fill.vwx

@Wes Gardner, I attached various Ifc data to light fixtures, plumbing fixtures etc. I created a report but it gives me a list of all items, How do I create reports per fixture types? Attached is the file and two images showing syntax in report. If I could get just a general syntax for light fixture and plumbing fixtures that would be great. See light fixture ifc data template I use but can't get proper syntax for Chaar Bathroom plans & int. elevations.vwx

I guess I was not clear on this question (thank you for answering though) I was meaning to ask how to add a hatch to a 3d extrusion so that it shows in a viewport with hidden line rendering type i.e. interior elevation (I assumed that a hatch associated to a texture would fit the bill, which it does). The other side of this question has to do with how to modify this hatch so that in the case of a tiled wall, can be set to a specific origin. It seems to me that this does not function properly in Mojave with VW 19.

I created a tile hatch and attached it to a texture to make an"RT" hatch which renders a hatch in hidden lines. I created a rectangle, extruded it and applied the texture to it. All of this works and it shows the hatch in hidden line rendering but I would like to start this hatch at a particular point on the floor. I tried to reshape the rectangle and moving it around to bring the center to the center of the room but when I resize the extrusion to match the room size the hatch jumps around and I loose my setup. Arrrgh Spending too much time on this, any suggestion? thx

after mentioned issues with mojave and version 18 I decided to install v19sp2 on mojave and it is working fine. looks interesting. best of luch

I get that vector need to create updates regularly to sustain sales but it seems that all release now come with so much frustration and bugs that it may be wise to release less improvements but with better finished features and complete troubleshooting. It’s not fair to any of us who stand behind VW and have to spend countless hours frustrated and not able to respond to deadlines !

Please update (rush) the service pack for VW 2018 to work with Mojave, I installed it without knowing of the issues and nothing works properly. Arrgh When can we expect to see that?

Ambient light on? Any light setup?

the creation of keynotes and relation to their legend is less than satisfying. The created first keynote legend is not showing up and the the Note: is not linked to anything. I found a way around it by copying one that worked on a previous file and renaming it while relinking the keynotes to it. this is an issue with 2018 it seems. Please resolve this issue quickly this is very annoying. Thank you
