Dubman Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 I'm opening each of my 2015 architect resource libraries object files to save them as 2016 objects, so I can continue using the large library that are not available to the 2016 version. I have been able to open and save as a 2016 version in the correct folder many files. But all of a sudden, it stopped allowing me to finish doing this. It now locks up or crashes & close. So my question is, am I suppose to be able to do this? Or are the 2015 object files no good for 2016? Quote Link to comment
Vectorworks, Inc Employee PVA - Admin Posted November 6, 2015 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted November 6, 2015 The crash occurs when you open ANY files now to convert them, or just one in particular? You can also use Batch Convert to convert them all in one action, maintaining folder hierarchy: http://kbase.vectorworks.net/questions/784/Batch+Conversion+of+older+Vectorworks+files Quote Link to comment
Dubman Posted November 12, 2015 Author Share Posted November 12, 2015 Thanks Jim, yes the batch file conversion worked. It even changed my tool pallets to solid white & at the top of the window it says VW not responding about 14% thru, but after letting it do its thing, it continued. Converting one at a time, it started not responding & crashing around the Furniture-Herman Miller Collection desk & seating. Thanks again for your help! Quote Link to comment
