    The solution was posted by @Jeremy Best on March 3, 2019. I am reposting here for your reference:

     

    1. Quit Vectorworks 2019

    2. Go to: Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support/Vectorworks 2019

    3. Select and copy these three folders:

    ⁃  Gobos

    ⁃  Library

    ⁃  textures

    4. Go to: Macintosh HD/Applications/Vectorworks 2019/Vision and paste them in.

    5. Reopen Vectorworks. 

  2. @Vasil Kitanov This was helpful, thank you. 

     

    When I import as 2D and 3D Views, I am able to go to the sheet and see the 2D drawing. It comes in as an Annotation to a blank design layer that doesn't exist. I thought I couldn't edit it, when it turns out that if I choose to edit Annotation, the drawing is there.

     

    Lots of weird quirks, but it is good to know that I can make it work without 2017. 

  3. @JuanP That was interesting to hear. I had been unsuccessful at importing almost any kitchen equipment manufacturer Revit models.

     

    So I did some tests to see if I was doing something wrong and this is what I found:

    1. If I import as 2D and 3D Views, there would be nothing there. 

    2. If I import as 3D Model View, it worked.

    3. If I import as a Revit (Batch), there would be nothing there. 

     

    At least I know that I don't have to rely on 2017 now, especially since Mac is going 64-bit only soon.

    It would be nice to have the 2D and 3D drawing - so hopefully someone can figure this out.

    I've included 3 files so you can text this for yourself.

    Thanks!

    I am trying to import my first revit file and it is crashing VW on both Mac and Windows. 61 MB file, every combination of import settings results in total crash, VW quits.

     

    I find VW2017 was that only version that properly imported Revit files. If you have access to that, import there, save as VWX and then open up in VW2019.

  5. @Markvl If I uncheck IfcWallStandardCase, the text in the Description box is deleted. If I uncheck Pset_WallCommon, the text in the Mark box is deleted. When I retype them, the items are checked again. 

     

    Looking at IfcWallStandardCase > Description, it shows what I typed into the Description box. But that still isn't what appears on the schedule (most of the time).

     

    Also, if I don't summarize the Mark column, I find that the same wall can show multiple Descriptions. Some of which are the actual description I typed in!
