Saving Mac Workspaces to PC


Recommended Posts

Hi guys, i'm wondering if its possible to copy the workspaces from mac to pc.

I'm working in a place, that have the mac version, and its already ajusted to me. Shortcuts, keys, etc. And now I have a PC and want to copy my workspace to this pc.

I've tryed and doesn't seems to work.

Thanks in advance.

I have tried for VW version 10. You need to know the extension used in the pc, for the pc version to recognize the file, I can't remember what it is - just look it up in the pc version. When I tried, it did recognize the workspace, but for some reason the Object info and Resource box was so big, that I couldn't get at the handles to make it smaller - it covered the whole screen. I didn't have time to work this out - I don't have VW on a pc, but you should be able to get it to work smoothly.

The extension is VWW.

If your mac workspace file is called Menu1, just rename it Menu1.vww and put it in the Workspaces sub-folder of the VectorWorks folder.

It used to be that when you copy a Mac file to a PC you get 2 files, one of which isn't needed by the PC and doesn't have anything in it that the PC can use. I don't know if that's still true.
