Christiaan Posted October 4, 2013 Author Share Posted October 4, 2013 Thanks Tim. I should clarify though that I need to monitor Vectorworks itself rather than my computer. I have 12 GB RAM so the computer doesn't run out, just VW. Do you know of any that can monitor a specific app? Quote Link to comment
Christiaan Posted October 4, 2013 Author Share Posted October 4, 2013 Jim, the problem with iStat Menu is that it's not visible without clicking on it and it doesn't alert you. Quote Link to comment
rDesign Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 I see. The only one I know of is 'Activity Monitor', which I see that you mentioned in your original post. Quote Link to comment
grant_PD Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 Along Horst's thoughts, I would like to manually set the number of facets to an object, as opposed to having a global setting. There are some things I don't care about, and some I do. I want to maximize the facets on things I do. Quote Link to comment
M5d Posted October 6, 2013 Share Posted October 6, 2013 Moving to 64bit will more mitigate these problems than actually solve them. . . Thanks Jim. I hope a straight-up approach and discussion like this is how the Vectorworks subsidiary intends to distinguish itself from the motives currently gripping the reins of the parent company. ---- It?s not just user-generated geometry that breaks the VW memory bank. I looked back at my most problematic files, no weird geometry, but attempting to BIM accurately by including bolt PIOs within cleat symbols etc. and the use of reasonably simple custom profiles in the framing member tool for Cees & Zees were the cause of major problems.
