Ride Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 Is there a way to turn off this ridiculous implied bezier/curve or whatever it is, when using the poly line tool? If I wanted a curve, I can choose from several modes make that happen. If I've selected the straight line mode, I probably want a straight line. Why does this program work against you so much? It's frustrating.... Quote Link to comment
EAlexander Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 That is actually Corner Vertex mode - not straight line mode. If you only want straight lines either click without dragging the mouse once clicked or use the polygon tool. Clicking and dragging (even a slight amount) puts you into a curve. This is working as designed. More info here: 1 Quote Link to comment
Ride Posted December 5, 2019 Author Share Posted December 5, 2019 Thanks for the reply. The problem is, I'm not clicking and dragging. I just click, then try to move the cursor to the next point, and I get the curved line. There are times the tool works as expected, but a lot of the time it starts the implied curve nonsense. I've been using Vectorworks since version 11, so I kind of know what to expect from this tool. VW2019 is different. It's not consistent. And it's frustrating. Quote Link to comment

Its definitely more sensitive in more recent versions. I've noticed it too. Kevin Quote Link to comment
EAlexander Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 I'm still on 2019 SP 3 and I haven't noticed a change, but I'll look for it when I do upgrade. Quote Link to comment
