Norge Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 How to I enable an extruded polylinle, that has a fill, appear as a fill when viewed in Top/Plan and Wireframe, in the same way that a 2d polyline does. I do not want to have to duplicate the polyline every time I create an extruded object, just so that it appears in a 2d view. Quote Link to comment
Vectorworks, Inc Employee Tamsin Slatter Posted June 27, 2013 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted June 27, 2013 Do you have Vectorworks 2013? If so, you can select the 3D geometry and run Create Auto Hybrid. This will create a plan view and you can determine the desired cut plane for the view too. (Only if you have something other than Vectorworks Fundamentals though. If you don't have a design series product, you could use the Extract tool and set its preferences to extract a planar object. That will duplicate a 2D version of your geometry. Quote Link to comment
Norge Posted June 27, 2013 Author Share Posted June 27, 2013 That works very well for the file with the object in - but it doesn't seem to work in a file that it using it via a reference. Is there a control I need to use in the file that is using the hybrid object through a viewport reference? Quote Link to comment
