hollister design Studio Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 OK, another day, another beginner problem... I'm doing the Michael Grove lesson 'Landmark essentials seminar and all of a sudden I have a very odd issue. My views are only changing in the active design layer. non selected layers stay on the view (top/plan or right iso etc) that they were on. If i select a new design layer then only object on that layer are affected by view changes and flyover changes - panning and zooming works for all design layers. Starting with the view set to top/plan and Existing design layer active: After switching to right iso with Existing active only the active layer updates: In this screen grab I've gone back to the start position (all layers set to top/plan), and then made Plot Plan layer active, and then switched to right iso This time the active Plot Plan layer changes to new view settings: : now if I make Existing the active layer, the view setting shows that it is still set to top plan: Have I entered some setting by accident? Possible related issue, when I tried to reproduce in a new file the objects on different design layers are not visible - EVEN WHEN design layers is set to show/snap others. Acts like it is set to active only... But, all design layers are showing view changes and flyover on all layers as I expect. Just can't see multiple design layers at once no mater what setting the layer options dropdown is set to. NOTES: VW 2021 - just purchased and installed yesterday.

zoomer Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 I think you have accidentally de-activated "Unified View" If that is OFF, (legacy mode), each Layer acts independently for View Rotations. You will find it in Menu > View Or you can add an Icon for it to your Top Bar. Also check its sub settings to avoid further irritations. This is a large trap for all VW beginners. 1 Link to comment
