Mecacarl Posted August 1, 2009 Share Posted August 1, 2009 Even with the update to the Student version of VW 2009 the Fasia & Soffit command is still not working. When creating a roof with a fasia & soffit both the fasia and soffit falls to the ground plane and never stays where they should which is on the roof. HELP!!! Quote Link to comment
JHEarcht Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 I reported the same problem on this forum, but got no replies. So I assumed that either I was doing something wrong, or not many forumers use those particular tools. I guess one of us should report this glitch as a bug. Quote Link to comment
Guest Wes Gardner Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 I tried to make mine fail and couldn't - see pic - can you supply a small test file? Wes Quote Link to comment
Mecacarl Posted August 4, 2009 Author Share Posted August 4, 2009 They have been aware of the malfunction for some time now. They replied to me months ago and said it was being addressed. I re-reported this a few days ago also sending them a file. I guess their on it once again. Forgive me but I still have not figured out how to send a file attachment on this forum, if you can help me I'll be glad to send you a test file, or it might be a lot simpler for me to email it to you.

Ray Libby Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 Click on the Switch to Full Reply Screen link at the bottom of the Quick Reply: window. Use the File Manager link to attach files. Quote Link to comment
Mecacarl Posted August 5, 2009 Author Share Posted August 5, 2009 Attached is a test file. It's the way VW 2009 adds the soffit & fasia Quote Link to comment
Ray Libby Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 Click on Soffit Settings, Give it a Recess: of 1". The soffit will display properly. If you really want 0 recess, change it back to 0" and it will still be correct. Quote Link to comment
Guest Wes Gardner Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 Hmmm, I downloaded the test file, blew the roof away, created a new one and it worked fine.... Maybe it's a student version/PC thing - I'll follow it up, in the mean time, use Ray's solution... Wes Quote Link to comment
JHEarcht Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 Actually, as the local User Group leader, I also have a "student version". I'm hoping the next "free" copy will be a non-crippled version. Quote Link to comment
Mecacarl Posted August 6, 2009 Author Share Posted August 6, 2009 The settings have nothing to do with the fasia & soffit installing on the ground plane, (tried Ray's suggestion). I believe this is a problem that the Student Version of VectorWorks 2009 has and the full version does not. Quote Link to comment
