beanus Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 I've been using Vectorworks for about 9 months & I'm finding it a very good package to use except for one thing, how do you know you've selected a line when you've zoomed in to a point where you can't actually see the ends of the line, a lot of other cad packages indicate this by changing the colour of the line you select but Vectorworks just puts blue squares at the end of the line, which is fine when you can see all of the line but when you can't, its crap, is there a way around this problem? have I missed something?

CipesDesign Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 Currently the only way to know for sure is to look at the Object Info Palette (OIP) which should say, "Line". Alternately you could zoom out and back in... Quote Link to comment
mike m oz Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 In VW 2008 there is Object selection highlighting. This should overcome that problem. http://www.vectorworks2008.net/features.html - 2nd item on the list Quote Link to comment

Christiaan Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 ah most excellent, when in 2008 will this be happening? To placate those who believe in ghosts you've been confused into assuming that it will be released in 2008. In fact v13 will be released on the 13th of Sept. 2007. Quote Link to comment

bc Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 I am in the US and I clicked on it, filled in the info and minutes later confirmed with the opt-in email process and voila!..........nothing. Guess I have to wait until the 13th. Quote Link to comment
jan15 Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 Same here, bc. Maybe they're waiting to see how many people respond before setting the price. Quote Link to comment

dontevenjoke Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 And as we all know the 13th of September is often known as 'Black Thursday'. Not this year, though. Quote Link to comment
