AceRoehrborn Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 I just updated to VW2021 SP3. Was working on cleaning up a drawing and I am noticing that all my circuit numbers are disappearing off the schematic when they are connected to a CTP socket. Circuit connected to device sockets seem fine. I also have two wires connected to the same socket on a device. Previously the circuit numbers would both show on top of each other. Now they both disappear. It seems like there may have been some logic added to cause the labels to disappear if the drawing gets cluttered or the labels are overlapping somehow. I can't seem to figure out what is happening and I am getting mixed results. See attached image. Why does the circuit number N10 not appear on the "out" but it does appear on the "In" ? Is my theory about something going on behind the scenes hiding these numbers true? Is there anything I can do to get my circuit numbers back? Quote Link to comment
Vectorworks, Inc Employee Conrad Preen Posted March 20, 2021 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted March 20, 2021 Hi @AceRoehrborn We have added options in the Circuit object info palette to let you override the logic. Best Conrad Quote Link to comment
AceRoehrborn Posted March 20, 2021 Author Share Posted March 20, 2021 Awesome! I thought I had something screwed up in my drawing. Thank you! Quote Link to comment
tk_ Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 Is there a way to move the labels and connector types further into the wire, mine seem to overlap a lot. Quote Link to comment

Keep in mind that these options will affect all circuits in your document. Best Regards, Nikolay Zhelyazkov 2 Quote Link to comment
Vectorworks, Inc Employee Conrad Preen Posted May 11, 2021 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted May 11, 2021 @tk_ Just a note. New topics cost nothing 🙂 and they don't allow me to move stuff for you.. So to avoid having your question buried in the noise here.... please create A NEW TOPIC 🙂 Conrad 1 Quote Link to comment
tk_ Posted May 11, 2021 Share Posted May 11, 2021 @Conrad Preen No problem, I didn't want to fall into the NEW TOPIC creation without even searching the forum trap. I've moved over to the new ConnectCad; so many great improvements since the early days. Quote Link to comment
Vectorworks, Inc Employee Conrad Preen Posted May 11, 2021 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted May 11, 2021 @tk_ Agree. The forum search engine leaves much to be desired IMO. If you search topics then you have a chance. Inside threads it becomes unreasonable. I would encourage everyone to create a topic unless you are absolutely sure. When we attach these to bug reports it's way easier if it's a short thread. I'm certainly not criticising, just trying to make the best of what we have. Just FYI and for all the others out there.
