hollister design Studio Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 One of my current project files "create objects from shapes" "landscape area" crashes VW. What I've tried: moving the polygon off of the site model and then creating, still crashes. Updated the site model, still crashes. I can use the landscape area tool set to polygon mode with no issues. I can create a hardscape form the original polygon no issues. Does not do this in a new file. Thoughts? Quote Link to comment

0 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Tamsin Slatter Posted January 20, 2021 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted January 20, 2021 Initial thoughts to assist with problem determination... If it's just in this one file, is the shape you are converting definitely closed? Does it have any accidental mis-clicks which have caused the geometry to be self-intersecting? What happens if you use the Bucket Mode on the Landscape Area toolbar instead to convert the shape? Quote Link to comment

It even crashes with a rectangle formed with the rectangle tool. 5 hours ago, Tamsin Slatter said: What happens if you use the Bucket Mode on the Landscape Area toolbar instead to convert the shape? This works as expected, tracing the shape with the polygon mode also works fine. The only thing that seems to crash is is 'convert objects to shapes' and only the 'landscape area' mode - not hardscape or site modifier etc...

0 hollister design Studio Posted January 20, 2021 Author Share Posted January 20, 2021 @Nikolay Zhelyazkov thank you. It only crashes in this one file. File is 350mb - what is the best way to send it to you? I'm also Service Select if there is a better option that way. Quote Link to comment
0 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Nikolay Zhelyazkov Posted January 21, 2021 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted January 21, 2021 @hollister design Studio - you can send me a message here in the forum with a link to the file uploaded somewhere, because I do not think that it is possible to attach that big file in here.
