Is there a list of new worksheet formulas in Vectorworks 2022?


Recommended Posts

Daft laddie question.

 

I see that there are some additional functions in worksheets - yeahhhh!!.  However, there are still a great number of basic mathematical functions that are available in excel that we do not have (or I can't find them).

 

One such situation is trying to get a worksheet to show the pitch of a stair. I can now get the rise and going (which is a good start), but nowhere can I get the pitch displayed.

 

I wasn't that worried as it is a simple inverse tangent function as there is a simple formula:

 

Going =  X

Rise = Y

 

Pitch = tan-1(x/y)

 

VW has a "Tan" function - but not an "Inverse Tan" function.  Or am I missing something.  Over 30 years since I did trig at school.

Over 30 years for me as well, but Vw WS do have an arc tangent function: atan(number)

… which if I recall my Trig class is the same as the inverse tan function?

Hi,

 

yes new formulas are always welcome.

 

Hope Vectorworks can implement the most common formulas from Excel.

 

My first wish: Sumif()

 

But first it would be very welcome, if we can directly use the formulas with

the data-subfields of a list (x.1, x.2, x.3, ..., hope you know what i mean!?) of an WS.

 

Greetings

Tobi
