BJSmith Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 Another (probably) stupid question that someone can set me straight on . . . I'm trying to add notes to my design using the General Notes feature. I ensure my text class is active, I choose General Notes from the Dims/Notes tools, I click somewhere on the design, and the Notes Manager appears. I add a note, choose OK, and nothing appears on my design. If I go through the process again, the note that I just added isn't there. What am I doing wrong? Thanks, BJS Quote Link to comment

Are you using database controls when the notes manager appears? There is no reason why you shouldn't - just trying to reproduce your problem and I can't You say that you are clicking OK - but you should need to do this twice. Once to create the note itself, and again to leave the Notes Manager dialogue - the notes object should then appear on your drawing. Talk me through it even more step by step and I'll see if I can work out what's happening. Quote Link to comment
BJSmith Posted May 17, 2007 Author Share Posted May 17, 2007 Well, I just went through the steps that I was following before and this time it worked . . . but honest to go, I didn't change anything with my methodology. Since I posted the first message, I have closed out of Vectorworks and rebooted my system so I can only suspect that there was something system-wide that was causing my problem and that a reboot fixed it. Has anyone had that kind of problem before? Quote Link to comment
Vectorworks, Inc Employee Tamsin Slatter Posted May 17, 2007 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted May 17, 2007 Very strange - not had similar problems. I've had files hang and lost work that way, but I suspect I need more RAM. Anyway - I'm glad it's working for you now! Quote Link to comment
