mdawson69 Posted April 23, 2018 Share Posted April 23, 2018 After years of using Vectorworks 9, I am evaluating Vectorworks 2018 to determine if Fundamentals suits my needs or if I will need to bite the bullet and get Architect. Thus far, using the Fundamentals workspace has allowed me to work within the default setup for Vectorworks Fundamentals, but it can be misleading as it omits some things that are available in Fundamentals. For example, I found out that while they do not appear by default the Door and Window tools could be added to the Walls toolset because it was explicitly noted in the online help. Otherwise, the online help offers icons to note features that are only available to certain Vectorworks products. I am now exploring some of the plug-in object options and noticed that there are tools specifically for adding cabinets to drawings. The Furn/Fixtures toolset does not appear in the Fundamentals workspace and the online help does not have an icon indicating that the feature is not available in Fundamentals. My uncertainty is due to the fact that there is also no text or subsection explicitly indicating that this toolset is available in Fundamentals as there was for the Door and Window tools when I looked them up. So, is the Furn/Fixtures toolset available in Vectorworks Fundamentals? Quote Link to comment
