Data Visualization

[Regie]

Hello Lads, Is there a chance I can show the data visualization in Graphic Legend? thanks

 

[Scott C. Parker]

I think you can do this in the Equipment Summary Key. I would think it should also work in the legend. Can you post a sample file to play with?

Hey Scott,

 

Would Data Vis being incorporated into Graphic Legends be something we can expect to see released with a future update by chance?
Graphic Legends do allow a much stronger toolset for summary lists and it would be very ideal to be able to apply a Data Vis set instead of having to use both features just for the coloring of legends.

 

Thank you.

I haven't played with this, so I don't know if it's already supported. I'd need a test file to play with. If it doesn't work, it's a great suggestion to add to our wish lists.

Let me know if I can provide anything to help, It would be a great update for an upcoming service pack!

 

Thank you

Thanks. Test files like the one at the start of this thread, which includes attempts to use Data Viz settings, would be helpful.

Thank you Scott,

 

Attached is a test/demo file. Consisting of ROE BM Frames of different sizes, color by Data Visualization. Then showing on the Sheet view that the Graphic Legend doesn't currently allow the incorporation of Data Vis to represent within the same legend graphic, forcing the user to have to show the Graphic Legend and the Data Vis Legend at the same time.

 

Ideally this one Graphic Legend could reflect the graphic, and the Data Vis Color within one legend.

 

Thank you!

Sorry Lads, Here is the vwx file for the structure.

Data visualization in graphic legend are requested since the beginning of graphic legend but still not implemented in v25 ...
It's requested by beta-tester as you can see here https://forum.vectorworks.net/index.php?/topic/104060-graphic-legends/

You can do something similar with report...

But, if no mistake, you cant manage class in report, so magnet and truss simplifed are enabled
And because of your DTV on name and fill ant not wire you have to show it in shaded view.

And I don't know exactly why, but it is something like: "because you roll some truss vector build a new 3d symbol with az different name, thats why in the img by dtv in 2d not all the symbol are colored.."

You can manage class in report, kind of. Report takes visible or hidden classes from "main documents" visibilities when you recalculate the report. So if you want to see trusses in reports make necessary modifications in class visibilities in either navigation panel or organization dialog and recalculate worksheet.

 

Easy and intuitive /s 😄

I have to correct my last statement.

If in Worksheet Format Cell dialog in View section you have component set as 2D Top and Render Mode as Shaded then class visibilities works. If you have any 3D view selected then class visibilities don't work.

Column D settings shown in screenshot, Column C has 3D view so all classes are visible in trusses.

 

Vectorworks version used in here is 2025.

But if you chande your DTV by size instead of name, it color all the truss and aplly to wireframe and fill
