Objects order automatically change


Kia

Question

Hello guys,

I work in a landscape architecture office and recently we moved from VW2016 to VW2017.

So we have this shared Project File that 4-5 people work on at the same time. The problem is when someone sets the order of the overlaying objects in the same layer he's working on and sends the changes to project file, the others get another whole different order of the objects. And this happens also everytime anyone closes the file and opens it again. The Objects remain in their right positions as long as the file is open, but only on your own computer. It seems that VW2017 totally igonres the order of objects or doesn't send it at all to the project file.

 

We worked so far with VW 2014 - 2015 and 2016 and this is the first time this is happening and it's really annoying, since everytime we want to export a sheet layer, we shoud first get inside the respective design layers and redo the objects orders.

 

Also clipping or trimming the overlaying objects is not an option, since we use many symbols, transparent objects, and also it makes the further edits harder.

So does anybody know what is the problem? maybe we miss something here?

Thank you :)

Kia - total guess here, but something to try: Could down grading the graphics navigation change this?  It's in Vectorworks Prefs>Display>Navigation Graphics. Change to Good Performance and Compatibility.

 

Sorry for late response.  I thought others would have known about this and reported a fix.  So, at least its bumped.
