Planes

[RichieHatch]

Hi all

We have recently noticed that some of our drawings (being a mix of imported dwgs and our own drawings) have a mix of objects on Layer and Screen plane. This is causing problems for us when creating symbols, joining objects etc etc etc. We would like to draw only on Screen plane and also have an option to change all objects to Screen plane in a drawing. Or even if there was a way to ignore the plane option...??? Any ideas of how we could do this...???

Thanks

Richie

There is a Plane Mode script by Petri Sakkinen available at Vector Depot: http://www.vectordepot.com/plug-ins/

Thank heavens or rather Petri for that ..... will have to try it out

Where is he anyway and when is he coming back here?

Thanks for that...! That'll do most of what we want. Unfortunately it doesn't get into symbols but that much we can manage ourselves.

Thanks again

Now that I have downloaded and saved the file.

How do I make it work?

Where do one place the file to activate it?

Hi Carl, I?m answering your question on the forum.

place the script, plugin into the Plugins folder, in applications/Vectorworks 2012/ Plugins, then go into yourworkspaces and check that the new tool, or script is available.
