johnbolt Posted February 11, 2003 Share Posted February 11, 2003 When I convert an 8.5 file to 9.5 file, all my windows in walls are greyed and the info in the info box is frozen ie not changeable..... WHATS HAPPENING? Quote Link to comment
Guest Posted February 11, 2003 Share Posted February 11, 2003 You need to run the Update to V2 Objects command. THis is found in the TOol Menu under Utilities>Update to V2 Objects. Windows and door PIO's created in VW 8 are version 1 plug in objects. VW 9 changed the code and updated them to version 2 objects. Because of this, the doors and windows need to be updated with this special command to make them compatible with the new version of VW. Converting VW 8 to VW 10 files will need the same thing done. Converting VW 9 files to VW 10 files do NOT need the command run. Quote Link to comment

TiTaNiuM sAMuRai Posted February 19, 2003 Share Posted February 19, 2003 Did you check to see if the plugins for those items in 8.5 were also in the 9.5's plug-ins folder? Quote Link to comment
