Benjamin Weill Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 HI All, Having just updated to VW2016, I find that I can't adjust the position of pieces of the label legends. I can switch between label legends, but I can no longer move specific pieces (channel/color/purpose/etc.). The Legends seem locked somehow. is this a new feature? Is there a way to Unlock them? I've tried on both an old file (created with 2015 and converted) and a new file (built from my template). Any thoughts? Thanks Quote Link to comment
michaelk Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 Works here on a 2015 light plot. There was a problem with 2015 not allowing label legends to move with OS 10.8. But I don't think 2016 is even supported on 10.8. mk Quote Link to comment
Benjamin Weill Posted September 17, 2015 Author Share Posted September 17, 2015 I'm running MacOS 10.10.5. I've tried it now with 4 separate plots created in 2015 (all build off of the same template) and new drawings using label legends that are form other sources. In none of these drawings am I able to adjust the labels positions. Quote Link to comment
michaelk Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 Does this one work right? mk Quote Link to comment
Benjamin Weill Posted September 17, 2015 Author Share Posted September 17, 2015 Nope . Is this something stupid? like, is there some global setting that I'm just missing? Some, "don't lock label legends" toggle that I'm missing? by the way, I like the X location in the legend! Thanks Quote Link to comment
Kevin McAllister Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 Benjamin, I think its the settings for the Selection Tool in the Mode Bar. You have some how accidentally selected the first mode. It needs to be the second or third mode..... Kevin Quote Link to comment

michaelk Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 New things like crazy today! Benjamin. Assuming you don't have interactive scaling disabled… (good call, Kevin) Post a file with one of your instruments. (That distance to center line in the legend is great. Especially for dance and rock & roll plots) mk Quote Link to comment
Vectorworks, Inc Employee klinzey Posted September 17, 2015 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted September 17, 2015 Benjamin, If you can't resolve the issue please contact tech support. We did a quick test with 10.10.5 and did not see any issues. Kevin Quote Link to comment
