Room Name Object Info - selected vs defaults

Recommended Posts

I am using this tool for the first time, and you can see my previous posts and responses earlier this week. I select a room name with the tool, and select the finishes for the catagories shown, and voila! it appears on the room finish schedule. But if I select that room name again, the dialogue box shows the VA defaults instead of what i previously selected, and when i close the Window, the settings in the Room Finish Schedule revert to the VA defaults. Is this the way the tool is supposed to behave? is the only way to view what the room finish setting are is threough the Object Info pallette, and if I want to change any single finish item in a room, I need to rest all of them? I expected the tool to do what the door or window tool does, i.e show the settings you have selected, not the defaults.

I have good news for you on this item. This behavior has been fixed as of the VWA 9.5 beta 5. The Assign Room Finish tool now will properly "pick up" finishes assigned to a Room Name object when editing. You can either download the beta and begin working with it, or (if you don't have the stomach for working with a beta, which I fully understand) wait for the release of VWA 9.5 and update at that time.
