2025 - Curbs, Edging and Borders - New Feature Video


Recommended Posts

Very excited about this, to make this truly useful may I request that roads can also be inclined in section?
Cross-sections of roads are never flat (they fall to either sides), it gets especially complex when there is a bend in the road, as the cross-section incline changes further according to the speed of traffic, width of road, etc.
Without the ability to create this cross-section incline, we can't model the roads designed by our traffic consultants with the road tool.
We end up doing complex things like free form modelling, which isn't great for our 2d drawings. 
And each time our consultants update the road profile, it is a massive headache to update the model.

Perhaps the upcoming 3d roadways function will help for you. Probably a VW 2026 feature since it's under the development section of the roadmap, see: https://www.vectorworks.net/en-US/public-roadmap?url=roadways
