I have a need for an .xyz points file for manipulation in another software. While VW allows export of early dxf formats, there's no option for export of 3D points aka vertices. Currently I'm using https://www.guthcad.com/dxf2xyz.htm but it adds quite a few steps (and ime requires a very...

To get my .pdf file size down I’ve always set out my images for a given sheet and then exported as a single image, then adjust size externally & reimport – as in this example using a plant palette. But how can I automate this more? I’d like to hit a button and export everything within th...

I'm trying to export a selection of sheet layers to DWG. I've tried this via 'publish' and 'export'. To test the export, I've dragged the DWG into a blank file and I get this grid all over the drawing. I've tried messing with the settings but with no success. Can anyone help? Thank you.

Hi, I have been having trouble getting sheet layers to export as shown in the Vectorworks Software. When Exporting as a PDF the fonts seem to be patchy and in both a JPEG and PDF export the drawings seem to be grey looking. This is what the sheet layer looks like on the sof...

@Eric Gilbey, PLA @Vladislav Stanev @Tony Kostreski We need better control of our DWG export process from VW. In order to coordinate with almost everyone, we still rely on this process and unfortunately, it is an extremely time consuming process...both in Vectorworks and in AutoCAD to de...- 3 replies

export Naming Schemes for exported files
bcd posted a question in Wishlist - Feature and Content Requests
Currently - in the File Export Options there is an option to set a naming scheme per PDF pages - I'd like a similar option to available for the PDF file itself. Also - it would be good to have the option to pre-define a number of such file-naming schemes so that a drawing can be exported to eg.... -
This is previously discussed in this other thread, however that one is more about the general workflow issues whereas I am looking to highlight the specific 'too many children' issue here when exporting a Vectorworks file to Unreal Datasmith. I am using VW 2023 SP3. When I have a group...

What I see in my Vectorworks file is what I want to see when I export the image, but it is not. Is there a file format or setting that will give me the same results as what I see in Vectorworks? This screen shot is accurate. Oddly it can reproduce the colors extremely close (if not exact...

So I went to export the design layers & sheet layers (to dwg) from a .vwx, and selected to export layers as separate files. My vwx file is 445Mb, and the file has no references. I'm running vw2018 landmark on win 64. I did the design and sheet export as separate processes as have had pro... -
Currently trying to export images of my line drawings for a Design & Access Statement. Using Apple Pages so exporting as JPG/PNG is my best bet for cropping effectively and getting file sizes down. However, I think I have messed about with the settings previously and my image file exports are alway...

Anyone had any success with KML export from Vectorworks? Almost got a lovely 3D model into Google Earth Pro, but it comes in about 100m off in terms of location. I think the geo-referencing in Vectorworks is ok... any tips or tricks to get it to work? Note we've already look...

is it possible to export saved views to another file? I don't see any way of doing this but would be very very useful if there is a workflow or script that enables this. I'm using VW 2018 on PC.

It would be great to get a little status bar when doing an export or publish process so you can get a sense of what VW is doing (though you do get a nice complete dialog at the end)... while you wait, maybe take a quick nap, grab a cup of coffee, whatever. There's no indication that something is hap...

Please, find bellow a drawing showing my 3 buildings to illustrate my post. 1. What I observed - It is not possible to have 2 stories at the same level (for instance A0 and B0 on the same level) - It is really annoying (and I'm trying to stay polite here) to set these stories...

Good day! When trying to transfer a project from vectorworks 2022 to L8 using MVR, the geometry of some elements is transferred with errors. For example, a TV set made using TV Tool is transferred normally, but if you add a stand to it, then only the screen texture and stand are transferred from the...
