Bart Hays Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 Working in VW 2013 Fund. Windows 7 Am I supposed to be able to drag and drop images onto a design/sheet layer. we have a mix of VW versions and both Macs and Windows Machines. I find the differences difficult to understand. VW 2009 (f) on a MAC we can drag and drop images and import PDFs on VW 2013 (f) on WIN 7 we cannot drag and drop images or import PDFs at all. is this correct? Thanks for the help btw, I have a request in to get all of us up to VW 2014 design series, we'll see.... Bart Quote Link to comment

In Fundamentals, dragging and dropping a PDF will not trigger PDF import, since Fundamentals can not import or export PDFs, only the "Print PDF" emulator built into OS X and included on some windows machines with other Adobe products already installed, such as Adobe Reader. On a Mac OS dragging and dropping a PDF may do the image-copy-and-paste action on occasion, but thats more of a Mac OS function and not something built into Vectorworks.
