Television Tool has no options

[Chris Money]

When I try to insert a monitor in a drawing, I only have the option for an 80" monitor.  Am I missing something or have all the different sized monitors been removed from the tool?  Is there an additional update I need to do?

 

Thanks

They should be there, none were removed for Vectorworks 2025.
Make sure you are looking in the Vectorworks libraries and not just the current document.
Also try refreshing the resource manager.
From the resource manager click the gear icon and select Refresh Libraries.

Are there plans to put the dropdown menu back for the tool instead of having to pick from the resource manager for different sized screen?

The TV monitor dropdown is gone. Inserting a TV or even clicking the tool icon is giving me "symbol invalid" error loops nor it is not allowing me to apply screen textures or edit the monitors in any way when it does create one. It does seem possible to drag and drop a monitor from the resource library- but again, it is uneditable. Something is changed and not for the better.

What is your O.S.?  What VW build are you running?  Is your installation 100% stock?
