Making new LW File from a VWX Plot caues most fixtures to lose their fill forever


Recommended Posts

I'm having an issue where we were sent a light plot but no paperwork. So I've cleaned up their plot, imported my own fixtures, fixed label legends, etc. Finally ready to export data to make a LW. When I sync the info with LW and click back onto vectorworks, 90% of my lighting instruments lose their fill permanently. I can't swap their symbols out for new ones, change their fill color (they are nested symbols anyways), etc. However the symbols in the resource browser look normal, and I can drop new symbols onto the drawing and their fill is fine. I've tried saving the files to my desktop. Tried opening backup files from VWX and re-exporting, and I run into the same issue repeatedly.

 

Here's a video of the issue:
