MacOS Sequoia compatibility and corrections

[spdygnzls]

For what it is worth folks, I upgraded yesterday onto my M1 MBP Max (64GB) and the zoom in/out and screen lag issues when using one or more external screens has been fixed.  I have two external screens and have been running VWA 2025 without any issues for the last two days.  

 

Yay!

Sounds good. Am I correct in assuming this is in comparison to Sonoma, not an earlier beta version of Sequoia?

Is anyone able to say whether VW2023 runs OK in Sequoia? The official compatibility list seems to say it is not compatible.

 

I have just moved from 2023 to 2025 so will be working in 2025 from now on but it would be good to know that I can still use 2023 for a bit for old projects just in case I run into any issues in converted files.

@line-weight I tested basic tasks, including opening files exported from Vectorworks 2025, and can confirm that Vectorworks 2023 SP8 operates OK on Sequoia. I did not encounter any crashes or immediate issues during testing. I hope this information is helpful.

Thanks. Good to know.

@JuanP would you recommend Sequoia over Sonoma?

 

Looking at this thread suggests there are still problems with Sonoma - is that correct?

@line-weight I recommend staying on Sonoma to ensure compatibility if you are considering running Vectorworks 2023.

I'm actually on Ventura at the moment, and trying to decide whether to move to Sonoma or Sequoia. The Sonoma thread "update" (dated from September) at the top implies there are still known issues for those using external displays (that includes me) - is that still up to date info?
