Suggestion to use a bucket icon for 'Apply Attributes' @MarcelP102 someone else has caught this one and I have since updated the eyedropper. I think it will be in one of the upcoming SPs. FYI: Cannot use the bucket because it is already being used for the boundary mode of the same tool! Great thread. Always good someone is keeping an eye out for these things!

0 Justin R Smith Posted September 20, 2021 Share Posted September 20, 2021 I seem to be having an issue where Unified view is off in my file but I can't turn it back on. 2 Quote Link to comment

0 zoomer Posted September 21, 2021 Share Posted September 21, 2021 (edited) Not sure if I got the Question correct. AFAIK, if you open older Files that already made use of screen plane aligned objects, screen plane will be already available in VW 2022. For new Files created in VW 2022, you need to activate the 2D legacy features manually. In VW's Top Bar, you can reactivate the Unified View Icon, which is hidden by default. But if 2D Legacy OFF, it is only a reduced version UV, which can only switch OFF screen objects. Unfortunately for me, any Files created in a previous VW Version will have that 2D Legacy Stuff ON and you can't switch it OFF as long as there are screen plane or UV things in. I fear that is even valid for my migrated Template Files. Edited September 21, 2021 by zoomer Quote Link to comment

No, the migrated Templates seem to have 2D Legacy OFF. My current VW 2021 to VW 2022 file can't switch 2D legacy off. I have no saved views, I converted some screen plane Objects in Slab Modifiers to Layer Plane. Maybe I did not find all of them. I have a Referenced underlay File displayed with cropped DLVPs. in a 3D View I see the crop being screen plane and so not working as usual. I tried to convert my Crop Rectangles to Layer and OIP shows them by Layer, but when I go into Crop Edit again, they are screen plane aligned again. I can't even draw a new Crop Geometry without being Screen Plane only !? How can I get rid of that Screen Plane for all and ever ? 2 Quote Link to comment

Question

Perhaps we can have a dedicated topic to report UI issues? Here is a list of what I found so far in VW2022:
Space tool - Pick Up atributes and Apply use the same icon. Suggestion to use a bucket icon for 'Apply Attributes'
Tool Sets shows blue background color, should be grey IMHO
Reshape Tool shows tools that are not available, or don't have any effect for the selected object..
For example with railing most of the icons are useless
Also the new preserve area don’t work with shapes other than squares, so why show it everywhere?
