Focus lines on plots

Hi all

 

Is there a way to show focus lines as per the attached pic as a function of Spotlight - or has someone just manually drawn lines between lighting symbol and focus point? 

 

The attached pic is from the latest VW planet vectorworks email.

 

Cheers

It is possible to do this, but not exactly as is shown in Vectorwork Marketing which are just manually drawn lines.

  • Go to Spotlight Preferences and the Classes and Colors section.
  • Check the Show beam Angle - center line box and uncheck the others. You can also assign a Class as well so you can turn this feature off using a Class.
  • Go back to the Lighting Device and select Draw Beam in the Object information Palette.

You should have a single line between the Lighting device and the Focus Point.
