FLAPJACK Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 I hope I'm just missing something, but it appears that even in Vectorworks 2012 there is still no plug-in for interior elevation markers. Am I missing something? In previous versions I had found a 3rd party plug-in that I used, but when I open those drawings in 2012 the plug-in disappears so I can't copy it into the new document. Anybody have one that will work? Thanks. Quote Link to comment
Jonathan Pickup Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 If you have added a third party plug-in to your previous Vectorworks, then you also have to add that plug in to your new Vectorworks. Quote Link to comment
Robert Anderson Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 You can draw a section line (in elevation mode) to mark and automatically create interior elevation viewports. Quote Link to comment
FLAPJACK Posted November 8, 2011 Author Share Posted November 8, 2011 I'm just looking for the annotation/marker to be placed on the floor plan to direct the user to locate the drawing on the sheet elsewhere in the set....but thanks. Quote Link to comment
Bob Holtzmann Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 This webpage has a free downloadable plug-in for an interior elevation marker: http://www.vectordepot.com/plug-ins/ Quote Link to comment
FLAPJACK Posted January 26, 2012 Author Share Posted January 26, 2012 Thank you. I've found this one before, but forgot how to make it work in 2012 until now. Copy into AppData-Roaming-etc.... The graphics are different than what we've used for years, but it will do for now. I still would love Vectorowrks to include on just like the Section/Detail/Elevation marker they already have.... Thanks for the response/reminder though. I am able to use this one for now. Quote Link to comment
FLAPJACK Posted February 8, 2012 Author Share Posted February 8, 2012 I was able to manipulate the script to get a fill pattern background and adjust the font size; so this will work. But another control option to show/hide the applicable triangles (for lack of a better term) would be a nice additional feature. Quote Link to comment
Chris D Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 You can draw a section line (in elevation mode) to mark and automatically create interior elevation viewports. That sounds enticing but is it true? I mean, say I had a space with four walls around it...could I just throw a four-way elevation marker on like below and get 4 viewports of the internal elevations of that room? The help files are not really helpful...is there a way to use the create section viewport command to do this? Quote Link to comment
