Lighting Devices refresh for Viewports


Recommended Posts

It seems that Lighting Devices must be refreshed after opening a new file for them to work within Sheet Layer Viewports. This is tedious but not a deal-breaker. However, when sending a sheet to be rendered by Vectorworks cloud services it is major problem as the lights are not refreshed either and are not showing in any returned renders.

 

Has anyone else experienced this?

Mark,

Ive not used the cloud services but I have definitely seen a lot of issues with Spotlight lighting devices and sheet layer viewports. I don’t know if it is everytime, but quite often Refresh Instruments has to be used to have them appear at all. Even when they do work properly, they populate very slowly which is why I have abandoned Spotlight functionality in renderings completely. I am not surprised to hear that this is an issue.
