Vectorworks, Inc Employee PVA - Admin Posted January 24, 2017 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted January 24, 2017 You should fully reinstall Vectorworks after the OS upgrade. Quote Link to comment
bcd Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 El Cap (10.11.6) here - I don't see any pressing reasons to upgrade. Quote Link to comment
zoomer Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 I upgraded long time ago. I don't use any of the new features like Siri so I don't see much change. Unfortunately some older Software stopped working. And Mail App seems to got worse. After Service Packs and driver updates the rest of hard and software works fine again. Quote Link to comment

Kevin McAllister Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 I upgraded a few days ago. No issues so far. Not really very different. KM Quote Link to comment
Diego - Resuelvector Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 I've tested and Vectorworks render much slower in Sierra than in El Capitan, but I tested only the spanish version Quote Link to comment
jmartinarch Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 Anyone with VW2015 that has made the upgrade? Quote Link to comment
FlyingHoward Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 Hi jmartinarch I have VW2015 Designer, and so far have had no issues with OS Sierra. Regards Quote Link to comment
Andy Broomell Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 I updated to Sierra a few days ago and haven't had any VW issues. Safari, on the other hand, now requires that I enter the "Local Items" keychain password every single time I open the program and I can't figure out why... Quote Link to comment
Pat Stanford Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 Go to keychain access and change the passwords so that your login and local items passwords are identical and you should be OK. You probably created a new account with a different password when you upgraded to Sierra and the Local Items did not get the same password. Quote Link to comment
rowbear97 Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 I've been running on Sierra for a few weeks now and haven't had an issue until 10.12.3. When that was installed the operating system was crashing! It would should down and restart and perhaps with our without coincidence I was running VW at the time. I'm running a Mac Pro (Late 2013) with the following. Just be aware this may be an issue. Apple support hadn't heard of there being any issues and hardware as eliminated as the culprit. Processor Name: 6-Core Intel Xeon E5 Processor Speed: 3.5 GHz Number of Processors: 1 Total Number of Cores: 6 L2 Cache (per Core): 256 KB L3 Cache: 12 MB Memory: 32 GB Quote Link to comment

OS upgrades ( clean installs don't have the problem) tend to mess with permissions settings to some extent, sometimes in applications and sometimes in the user folder. Reinstalling resets these to defaults and can avoid a lot of issues. Quote Link to comment

digitalcarbon Posted April 12, 2017 Author Share Posted April 12, 2017 ok, so i was also exporting images @ 300 dpi and bringing them into VW. maybe the rez was to high..have since deleted images for just 2d graphics with fill things are way better now working much better Quote Link to comment
digitalcarbon Posted May 4, 2017 Author Share Posted May 4, 2017 2017.05.04 i have not seen any real problems (the ones above were operator induced) Quote Link to comment
zoomer Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 (edited) Some students on the german forum with their week macbooks complained about VW SP3 using more and more RAM over time so that they have to restart VW after a while. While it may stayed at 4 GB before, it would now increase over time until their 8 GB RAM is exceeded for the same projects. My VW needs 1,25 GB, without even any file opened.
