Symbol naming / Vectorworks naming rules


Recommended Posts

It seems like not all object naming in vectorworks works the same. Records, symbols, classes seem to have some rules to how they should be named. Do anyone have some rules that I can use.

I have been having some bugs with symbols that disappears, and I think it might be because of naming issues.

I use a nordic keyboard, where "æøå" is used. Vectorworks seems to accept this in some instances. e.g. in class names, and not in others, e.g. records.

I do not know of a set of rules on which items have the issues and which do not, but these are currently treated as bugs on our end and there are a series of reengineering tasks on the schedule to correct them that users will begin to see implemented soon. This overall task is "Unicode Support" and it is what will remedy the issues we have with non-english characters and other issues related to file- and object-name structures.
