ashleighguns1 Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 I can't seem to figure out how to get the wall framer to work on my 2nd design layer? Am I missing something? This is due tomorrow night so any help would be much appreciated. Quote Link to comment
Pat Stanford Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 In the Wall Framer setup you have to specify which layer to frame. Have you checked that you have the correct layers specified? Quote Link to comment
Guest Wes Gardner Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 @ashleighguns1, as Pat says, make sure to specify WHICH LAYER, the screen shots provided are set to frame the layer called "2-Floor Layout" Also, if you've classed your walls, you have to tell it what class to frame as well...in my case it's [Wall]-Exterior (see screen shots.) You get to that by clicking the "Options" button in the Wall Framing dialog down at the bottom left. Otherwise, I think you get the error message shown? Quote Link to comment
ashleighguns1 Posted May 8, 2020 Author Share Posted May 8, 2020 I've tried but it still isn't working - I don't have the same new wall classes as you? Have I done something wrong when making my model? Any other ideas?? Quote Link to comment
Pat Stanford Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 You need to pick the Layer in your file the walls are on and the Class that YOUR walls are in. Whatever those are. If you have walls in different classes you need to pick all of the ones you want to frame. Quote Link to comment

drfoulk@gmail.com Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 The layer I try and check will not check. It highlights then - nothing. This service pack for VW 2023 is so buggy it is nearly unusable. The windows don't cut the walls, the framer won't allow a layer to be chosen, on and on. I have over 30 years with VW and MiniCAD and have never seen a more worthless edition. VW 8 was far better than this for goodness sakes - like 25 years ago.
