3D Modelling to Working Drawings

I've been experimenting with 3D Modelling to produce Design Concepts and I'm not really satisfied with the result & have gone back to sketching. Firstly is the "time on tools" aspect, as I find it a frustrating experience and not at all as straight forward as I feel the interface should be. The real stumbling block however; converting what I've made into usable Vectorworks objects; i.e. walls, doors, windows etcetera. I have used the Extract command for example on simple rectangular wall fac

I don't really use walls that much because of the type of work I do. I do wish I could insert PIOs (doors, windows, skylights, custom objects etc.) into solids objects I created. I think this would make VW way more powerful. Maybe its a container objects like the Subdivision object that I drop my custom geometry into and it allows for PIO insertion (doors, windows in vertical surfaces and skylights etc. in horizontal ones). Then I could make any geometry I need to and inset PIO objects into vari
