I'm by no means good at Vectorworks yet, my question might be silly but it drives me mad.
I'm trying to design a truss using the integrated Insert Truss function and I'm using Prolyte H30D elements straight from the Ressource Manager.
If I put a base down, then try to attach a vertical truss bit to it, it end up at the wrong angle.
Because Vectorworks did automatically connect the two elements together, I'm expecting the angles to match.
If I manually correct the angle of my vertical section in Properties, it gets unlinked from the base, and if I move it again, connect it, the angle is automatically changed back to the wrong value. It seems like the autoconnect feature rotates my truss in the wrong direction.
