Vectorworks 2013 SP4 (build 190383) KEEPS CRASHING


Recommended Posts

REF: Vectorworks 2013 SP4 (build 190383).

I am currently working on 4 plans consecutively, almost every time i switch between any VW quits, Initially i thought is was when copying objects, but not the case. I can open two files, do nothing, keep switching and within probably 2-3 switches VW will quit. This is happening on all 3 VW machines in our office, 1 iMac and 2 Mac Book Pro's.

Been happening for a while, but only now when i've starting trying to homogenize these drawings for a tender package and am constantly flicking between them is it becoming a real issue and i'm starting to lose work and time.

Seems stable enough when only working on one file even if others are open.

Thanks, but i only get 500mb for all 4 files!

Try ditching your preference files:

It's worked for us a few times recently.

Thanks, i would try this if i could find the mythical 'Go' button it speaks of! Any pointers?

Managed to switch hidden folders on with 'Terminal', deleted all prefs, working better but not solved. Still quits when switching docs especially if copying elements between.

It will seem like an odd question, but how exactly are you switching between open documents? Keyboard shortcuts, rearranging windows and simply clicking between them, or via the Window menu?

Does the crashing occur regardless of which method you use?
