Parts of drawings disappearing


HWood

Question

Hi All,

 

Is this a known issue? We've had parts of drawings disappearing for a few weeks now. Particularly from larger files, but both 3D models and 2D draughting. Sometimes the drawing is missing from one users computer, but visible on anothers. Sometimes we can see the orange box when we hover over it , but even if we click into annotations we can see nothing at all. The data is never recovered and we have to draw it again! Very concerned.

Hello HWood! 

 

This could be related with the navigation graphics issue that was around and most of the time was caused by compatibility issues. Now this was patched up with service packs.

 

Please give it a shot and go to Tools-Options-Vectorworks preferences. Open the Display tab and change the navigation graphics either from "Best performance" to "Good performance and Compatibility" or the other way around. If this will fix the issue don't worry working on the selected option this will most likley just improve the performance of Vectorworks.

 

This issue was fixed in Vectorworks a couple of Service pack's ago so to further look into this and to make sure that all navigation graphics modes would be working please update your Vectorworks to the latest service pack. If that is already done and you will still see issues, don't hesitate to contact the local distributor for further troubleshooting. Again just to remind you that there is should be absolutely no problems working on a different navigation graphics mode.

thank you @Domas we have tried this but it hasn't helped unfortunately. We are on the latest service pack for 2019. We have also tried opening it in 2020... 😞
