Curved Wall bug?

[po228]

I'm  new to Vectorworks, so it's possible I'm just doing this complete wrong, but I can't get any curved section of wall to show up when I create them.
 

I can't create any curved walls at all - they just disappear as soon as I click endpoint, but straight and angled walls work fine (see 10s video attached).

 

Most of the time it doesn't seem to create any object at all. Occasionally it creates an invisible wall, that can briefly appear if I alter the geometry, but I haven't been able to capture that yet.

 

Is this a bug, or is there a setting i can change to make it work?

 

 

I'm using Vectorworks Architect 2024 (Update 1) on Windows 10

I'm  new to Vectorworks, so it's possible I'm just doing this wrong, but I can't create any type of curved wall at all - it just disappears as soon as I click endpoint (or confirm), but straight and angled walls work fine (see 10 second video below).

 

Most of the time it doesn't seem to create any object at all. Occasionally it creates an invisible wall, that can briefly appear if I alter its geometry, but I haven't been able to screen-capture this behaviour yet.

I'm not seeing that here.

 

Does it work if you are not in a rotated view?  Or if you use a different round wall mode (not tangent mode)?

Yes you're using Arc by Tangent Mode + it looks in the video like you're not clicking in the right places:

 

 

You need to move the cursor between each click + end with a double click.

make sure all classes are visible.
 

As a test…

 

In top/plan, create four normal walls using the rectangle mode 10m x 10m and then use the fillet radius tool set to 1m radius to create a curved wall on one of the corners.

 

Does that work?

I think this was the (very basic) issue. thank you for taking the time to help me!

You're right as well, thank you!

Why is is that curved sections of walls only show up in non-rotated plan views?

I am not seeing this. Curved Walls are working fine in VW2024 both in Top/Plan + Rotated Top/Plan views...
