rwx camera problems in 2018


ford519

Question

Hi there, I'm using VWX arch 2018 and the renderworks camera continuously moves to -5'3" Z. I readjust it and sometimes it'll stay for a bit and then it'll readjust again. It will also change the FOV without me changing it. This will happen whether or not I am viewing from the camera or not. I've tried changing to the default camera before changing settings and it still messes up. It even sometimes doesn't even register when I change the settings. Am I missing something?

 

Also while we're at it, is there a way to lock the camera's settings without locking the view selector?

 

EDIT: Another question: I've only been using Vectorworks regularly for about a year... should I have stayed with 2017 for a few months before upgrading to 2018? Does Vectorworks usually get released with lots of bugs that need to be fixed by professional users?

I am not 100% sure if deactivation will always prevent Cameras from destroying

their coordinate values when being edited.

 

But there aren't many situations where I can keep Cameras deactivated for editing.

Even when not using Cameras in Design Layers but linked into Viewports,

for example to edit my exposure settings, I have to activate the Camera View.

I lost Cameras this way too.

Although it seems that Cameras survive a bit longer when used linked into Viewports only.

So am I just supposed to accept this as a shortcoming of Vectorworks?

Good thing I have no allegiances to software companies.
