propstuff Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 I've been preparing EPS files of display partitions to go for profile cutting "If any of the objects in the drawing are outside of the print area, a dialog box opens to ask if the print area should be used as the bounds of the EPSF export. If the print area is used as the bounds of the EPSF export, any objects outside of the print area are not included in the export." (help file) I chose one option and dismissed the dialogue. Now I'm at the next stage and I want to change the option but the dialogue no longer appears. Restarting VW makes no difference. How would I get the option dialogue back again? N.

JBC Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Under the Session Tab in the VectorWorks Preferences there is a button to "Reset Saved Settings...". I think clicking this will bring back your dialog with reference to EPS and Page Boundaries, but I also think it will reset many other things too, so please be aware... Quote Link to comment
propstuff Posted July 23, 2009 Author Share Posted July 23, 2009 Excellent try JBC! but no luck for me here. Quote Link to comment
JBC Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Gosh I thought that might be it. I can recreate your problem over here and the button fixes it every time. There are two reset buttons in the Session Tab of the Preferences. One says "Reset"(lower left of dialog) and the other says "Reset Saved Setting"(upper right of dialog). When I click the Reset Saved Setting VectorWorks pauses and reloads the palettes and then the EPS warning returns when exporting... This is on a PC, 2009 SP2. My older Mac with 12.5 doesn't get the warning... Quote Link to comment
propstuff Posted July 24, 2009 Author Share Posted July 24, 2009 Well,....... it seems like it should work, but then my whole puter's been on the blink lately. I suspect it's the aliens. Good thing I have my aluminium foil helmet on to keep out the mind rays. Quote Link to comment
