The other option I have tried is placing the worksheet on the design layer and use 2 viewports. The second viewport doesnt appear wh...

Publish Order of Sheets - Does not match Sheet Layer order
leecalisti posted a question in Troubleshooting
Vectorworks - Since I started using VW2022, an old problem has crept back into it. When I go to PUBLISH a set of Sheet Layers to a PDF, the PUBLISH window does not retain the order I have set them in the Sheet Layer Window. If I try to sort by Name or Type, it does not reset them in the correct orde...

Good morning folks, I have a weird thing happening in my published PDF sets. I got an email from one of the consultant asking me if I could remove the blue overlay from the two sheets I'd sent them. I've attached screen shots that they sent me and shots of what I see. The bl...

For some reason I am unable to select my viewport in my sheet layers. I can't select in order to annotate and crop or move the viewport around the sheet layer. I feel I've exhausted my resources as far as co workers and searching the forum so apologies if this question has been answered a...

ScottLebsack posted a question in Wishlist - Feature and Content Requests
I would really appreciate the ability to create folders or subsets in my sheet layers. Working as Landscape Architects, generally our sheets begin with L. I find through the course of a project, I'll end up with maybe more than 10 sheets that should be L1.0 (Client Exhibits, DR Submittals, HOA submi... -

Spotlight 2020 - Visibility of lamps controlled by random classes
AliaS posted a question in Troubleshooting
So I look at my LX Plan sheet layer last night and all my lamps are gone... Lamps still exist and behave normally when working in design layers, but upon playing around I realize their visibility in my sheet layer is controlled by a different class. The lamps themselves are in vario... -

[Screen ReDraw] Screen won't redraw until initiating zoom
Charlie Winter posted a question in Troubleshooting
I am having an issue with design layer redraw after returning from a sheet layer. My fullscreen crosshairs disappear, and the x,y ruler highlight does not track my movements. I've attached a video here as well. Closing and reopening the drawing remedies the bug.... -
I have tried to simply duplicate a sheet layer and every time, in the couple files I have tried so far, this causes it to crash.

Hi you all, My workplace are looking into Vectorworks, and i am the man to setup our new template. I was told, that they want to draw in 1:1 scale, so the design layers are in 1:1. Our sheet layers (viewports) is typical in 1:100 and 1:200. Everything is good, excpe...

It would be very useful when changing the Title ( of the same wording ) of a Sheet Layer into 'CAPITAL LETTERS', Vectorworks would accept it. 1. Typing text to change from 'Floorplan & Elevations' to capital letters 'FLOORPLAN & ELEVATIONS' 2. When closing the edit...

I have a question about inserting a new layer in between 2 existing sheet layers. How do I go about inserting the new layer between say, one and two and have 2 become 3 using auto coordination? Is that even possible?

Help: In all my sheet layers, the ruler and units are in a 50% scale. I know that the layer scale cannot be changed and says it is 1:1, but when setting a legal size sheet of paper, an 8.5" wide x 14" long Page Setup, the ruler and units indicate 4.25" x 7". What am I doing wrong? It is infuria...

I have inserted some Elation Platinum Spot 15R Pros into my lighting plot. They render just fine on the plot and in 3D, however when I switch a sheet layer with a viewport of the plot, they do not show. In fact, colour scrollers and other accessories aren't showing either in viewports. The symbol is...

Dear VW lovers, when importing multiple PDF files into VW - either onto Design Layers or Sheet Layers - then the screen slows down when I am looking at a page and resize the view itself only. It looks like VW is somewhat 'processing' the view of the PDF files and it takes a...

Dear VW team, I wish it would be possible when creating a new Viewport to have the option to create a crop right there and then, for example in the shape set by the camera settings - 'Aspect Ratio 16:9'. This by choice or default. Reasons for my wish are: 1...

Hello all I have a little Problem about to create Sheet Layer by Name, with the Node "Layer With Type" . The name is created by the layer number instead of the Layer Name (red arrow), and I have no idea how to change it: I tried to add the "vs.NumLayers ( )...

I'd like the Current Revision number to be shown in the Sheet Layer dropdown menu (and perhaps in the Nav palette and Organization window). This could be default behaviour (my personal preference) or a preference option setting. If there is no revision associated with a Sheet... -

I have a file on spotlight in which, being used to the workings of AutoCAD, I simply set up a 24x36 rectangle and drafted in 1/4" scale in that, since this was my first time using this program. Now that I want to export, I can't seem to get it within the sheet layer. Is there a quick and easy way to...
