Gaius Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 AI Visualizer seems to no longer respond to text only prompts. If I add a composition or style it will produce something. But this puts severe limitations on the tool, where it now will only modify or restyle existing content. I can't get it to generate anything! Is this a bug? Has the operational workflow changed within the last 30 days? I'm getting the same inoperability from both 2025 & 2026. I've power cycled and relogged in. Can someone at Vectorworks verify whether new limitations have recently been implemented? Quote Link to comment
Pat Stanford Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 I just opened VW2026 Update 3 and asked for a "maple butcher block countertop texture" and got Probably not what I was looking for, but it shows that text only prompts seem to work for me. Quote Link to comment

Gaius Posted January 14 Author Share Posted January 14 Thanks @Dave Donley it's nice to know I'm not going crazy. It was nearly all of yesterday that I was getting nothing. Is there a place we can see notifications of service outages? I haven't found anything, and resorted to this post. Quote Link to comment
Vectorworks, Inc Employee Dave Donley Posted January 14 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted January 14 @Gaius The Vectorworks Cloud Services feedback form would be a quick way to let the team know about an outage like this: https://cloud.vectorworks.net/portal/support/ Quote Link to comment

Vectorworks, Inc Employee Dave Donley Posted January 20 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted January 20 AI Visualizer is Vectoworks Service Select or Subscription license, because it uses Vectorworks Cloud Services for processing on our local servers and on AWS as needed. Quote Link to comment
zoomer Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 Thanks Dave, I have seen that VW 2025 says Subscription or VSS, but VW 2026 says only Subscription. But good to know. On the other hand it looked like VW Cloud (Service too ?) somehow still works (Nomad and such) for me and for me logging in to VW looked even mandatory (?) when I first installed VW 2026. But maybe that already changed. Quote Link to comment
