When I deleted an older space with space area I could not get it back with area, where do I look please?

Vectorworks, Inc Employee Robert Anderson Posted October 16, 2007 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted October 16, 2007 The space tool was substantially changed/upgraded between VW12 and VW2008, and the workflow changed also. You can now customize the list of additional data that you wish shown with the space name/number. Here's what to do: 1. Check the "Show Additional Data" dialog box in the Object Info palette; if this alone does not fix the problem, 2. Click the "Set Additional Data" button and choose Area from the list; move it from the left list to the right. Quote Link to comment
phorn78 Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 Has anyone successfully used the "proposed area" feature of the space tool? I'm having a little trouble. If I enter "1000" sq.ft. in the Proposed Area dialog box for example, the tag displays "PAREA: 0.011 sq ft". If I change it to "10000", the tag shows .108 sq ft. No matter what I do, it is off by a factor of roughly 92,904. Can anyone confirm whether they have the same problem in VW2008? Thanks in advance for your help. David Quote Link to comment
phorn78 Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 FYI -- this problem with the proposed area feature has been fixed in SP2. Quote Link to comment
