Vectorworks, Inc Employee PVA - Admin Posted June 2, 2014 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted June 2, 2014 A few things can cause that: 1) You are zoomed in so far that you only see the loci. This can be fixed by selecting the plant, then going to View > Zoom > Fit to Objects 2) There is geometry in front of the plant. 3) You are not in a Top/Plan view in the file that does not show the plant. This is changed in View > Standard views. 4) The main Plant class is visible, but the plant component classes are not. Those class names start with "Plants-components-" by default I believe.

soso Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 I have this problem too! I am on Top/ Plan, zoomed out, and have all classes visible, but for some reason I can only see the plants as an orange cross when highlighting the area they are placed. I tried inserting a new plant to see if it was just something wrong with that plant, but the new plant had the same problem. Obviously I've inadvertently changed a setting, I just don't know what it is!?! Quote Link to comment
soso Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 Answering my own question - turns out it was a problem with Vectorworks draining the graphics card on my computer. Went to Vectorworks; Preferences; Display; Navigation Graphics; select Good Performance and Quality. Then, do something to make the view refresh, eg change which layers are visible. Then the plants appeared again. Quote Link to comment
