Bob at GDA Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 VectorGeek, I would have to second your thoughts. This shows how much NNA cares about its users. My thanks to them. Quote Link to comment
Damon Design Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 (edited) Hurray. It looks like I may be able to install Leopard on my computers after all. I will wait a bit for the reviews-and I'm sure it wont be perfect-but I'm confident NNA is committed to continue to treat us right. Update-Installed on laptop that I rarely use VW on- Seems to work fine so far. Edited November 16, 2007 by Damon Design Quote Link to comment
G_Hannigan Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 As I mentioned in a post some two weeks ago. VectorWorks users are dealing with a company who cares about it's client base. In the software industry, that isn't necessarily always the case. NNA has a history of doing "the right thing" when it comes to these types of fixes. Looks like they have done it again. V-G. Agreed.

Melshimber Posted November 16, 2007 Author Share Posted November 16, 2007 I just wanted to say thank to NNA for listening to my concern regarding 12.5 and for their new release to fix my leopard problems. Good job! Mike Quote Link to comment
Petri Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 How about my MiniCAD 5? I hope that Bob, Damon, G & Melshimber support my plea to have MiniCAD 5 to be made to work with OS X Leopard. Of course I won't pay for it - I just expect NNA to listen to my concern, do the right thing, care about the user and so on. (I could say MiniCAD 3, but I no longer have the installation disk for that version.) Quote Link to comment
Christiaan Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 I don't think there'd be enough demand for that Petri. On a different topic, I think there might be demand for a standalone conversion tool that can convert any vwx/mcd file to the latest version. Quote Link to comment
Petri Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 Demand? That, in my Capitalist Market-Economy Dictionary, refers to Commercial Demand, ie. things that people want to pay for. Here we have a vocal contingent of people who "demand" but who don't want to pay for what they want. They must all be Communists. Quote Link to comment
Christiaan Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 I'm a Pareconist myself but my reading of it is that there is a demand for a certain level of service (software, after all, is more akin to paying for a subscription than ownership of something tangible) and that service includes the expectation of a certain level of ongoing compatibility and bugfixes. NNA are simply offering a certain level of compatibility that they think is required to continue having paying customers into the future. Quote Link to comment
Marietta Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 NNA has released 12.5.3 to address these issues. We haven't updated to Leopard yet on all our computers, but have it on one to accomodate another program. I wanted to try 12.5.3 before getting Leoprad on the rest, but am having real problems with it on Tiger - it doesn't recognize some files and can't import autocad files. I haven't tried it beyond that - doesn't seem worth it. Maybe it is just for Leopard? Anyone else tried? I agree NNA is usually good with their upgrades. Quote Link to comment
Guest Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 Marietta - In your other post, I suggested restarting and running disk utility if you have not already done such. Quote Link to comment
RKD Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 the maxon plugin does not work in leopard. Quote Link to comment
G_Hannigan Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 the maxon plugin does not work in leopard. You'll find it here when it is released: http://www.maxon.net/pages/download/plugins_e.html As Katie said, Maxon provides the plugin. Quote Link to comment
Trevor at Drawinz Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 To Katie and the whole team at Nemetschek thanks for the update to VectorWorks 12 for Leopard. I really appreciate it. Quote Link to comment
