RichieHatch Posted September 14, 2007 Share Posted September 14, 2007 Hi Finally 2D rotation... I have been shouting for years and now its delivered... Thanks...! Just a couple of questions... My office held off on upgrading to VW12 and are currently using VW 11.5... We will almost certainly upgrade immediately mainly because of the 2D Rotation but I am now confused about what version we actually have to buy...? We have 11 licenses of VW 11.5 but as far as I can see the view rotation is only in the Architect package. Does this mean we would have to buy VW 2008 Fundamentals plus the Architect package...? Also has there been any major improvements in the DWG exporting apart from the worksheet enhancements...? Many thanks Richie Quote Link to comment
Christiaan Posted September 14, 2007 Share Posted September 14, 2007 Not sure what the upgrade process is from 11.5 but you won't need both Fund and Arch. You only need one, Arch in this case. Quote Link to comment
RichieHatch Posted September 14, 2007 Author Share Posted September 14, 2007 Ok cheers Christian... Excuse my dumbness but the Architect package include everything that the Fundamentals has plus the added features of the Architect package...? The Feature Matrix confuses me a wee bit...!

Christiaan Posted September 14, 2007 Share Posted September 14, 2007 I think the feature matrix might be wrong. Quote Link to comment
RichieHatch Posted September 14, 2007 Author Share Posted September 14, 2007 Ah... Ok... I will wait for Katie or Robert to clarify this...! Thanks all the same..! Richie Quote Link to comment
quigley Posted September 14, 2007 Share Posted September 14, 2007 You can check the exact feature set for each by following the product links on this page: http://www.nemetschek.net/upgrade/index.php I can't answer the question about rotated plan but from reading the Fundamentals drafting page it appears it is not in the base package.....which was news to me.

Petri Posted September 14, 2007 Share Posted September 14, 2007 At this stage we just have to accept the fact that different products have different features. When the "product line" concept was originally introduced, at least yours truly assumed that the "industry-specific features" would be, well, industry-specific. "2D-view rotation" does not appear to me as "industry-specific", but obviously it is. Nevertheless: VW is still, even as a "fully specified" version, a cheap CAD-program. About the price of AutoCAD LT, I think. Cheap. But what about cheerful? The natives are becoming restless... Quote Link to comment
