In this situation I have two layers, one with pdf's as reference and one with my design. The problem i'm having is if I rotate the camera in my design layer the pdf layer doesn't follow, it stayes in a kind of screen plane mode.. Same thing if I activate the pdf layer and rotate the camera. Then the pdf's are "on the ground" but the design layer is floating in screen mode. I've had this problem before and just worked around it, but I'm sure it's a setting or a workflow thing I have done at some point but I don't understand how to fix it. Some help would be appreciated.

Hello, I am new to the forums so apologies if this is a common topic. Been using vectorworks for a while now and never really fully understood the differences and or benefits of using either screen plane or layer plane when drawing. Primarily using vectorworks for 2D drawing and assumed that screen plane was better to use for this. However it seems that without adjusting the setting some items in files end up being on layer plane, even after selecting to force the plane mode to screen in the plane mode preferences panel. This preference seems to be forgotten while the file is closed. It causes issues when items are drawn in different plane modes as it seems you are unable to select certain items if different. It would be great if someone was able to explain the differences fully, which is better to use for 2D drawing and how to set this as a default. Thanks, Matt
