VW 2023 Issue - Walkthrough Tool

[GarrettBurleson]

I am assuming this is a 2023 issue as it was not happening until I updated.  When using the Walkthrough Tool, on 'Gamer Mode', keyboard shortcuts for tools override the walkthrough tool.  For example when walking around if I press A to walk to the left, it kicks me out of the walkthrough tool and into the arc tool.  Same thing for the 'D' key, which I have set as the dimension tool.

 

Thanks,

Garrett

@GarrettBurleson thanks for pointing this out and I'm unfortunately not able to reproduce the problem you describe.  Just a couple of question and feel free to DM me; is this happening on Mac or Windows?  If you reset the key mappings or choose a different workspace does that help?

Hi @Josh Loy, I am using a 2022 Mac Studio.  I have a custom workspace that I create each time I download the new Vectorworks.  When I switch from my workspace to the 'Architect' workspace this problem does not occur.  

 

Thanks,

Garrett

@Josh Loy, still no luck with my custom toolspace.  I am trying to avoid rebuilding it but will resort to that if that's what you'd recommend.

 

Thanks,

Garrett

Two suggestions before you rebuild your workspace.

 

1. Reset all of the key preferences in the Walkthrough Tool preferences.  Select Each, delete the key, then go back and restore the shortcut.

 

2. Try and use the Migration Manager from the Tools menu to "re-upgrade" your workspace from 2022 and see if that solves the problem.
