VectorScript Object

[JHEarcht]

VW 1.1 on Windows XP

I have downloaded a RegularTruss.VSO file from VectorDepot, but I haven't figured out where to put it so VW can find it. The User Guide was no help, and placing it in the Object Library didn't work. I can import .VSS files, but not .VSO. I'm sure it's very simple, once you know how, but I don't. Any help will be appreciated.

VSO stands for VectorScript Object, which is a kind of plug-in. Place the file in your Plug-ins folder and restart VW. Then use the Workspace Editor to put the tool in the toolbar of your choice.

Make sure that VW is not running

copy this plug-in to ;

c:/ Program Flies/VectorWorks 11/Plug-Ins

then restart VW

From the Menu Bar choose:

File > Workspaces > Workspace Editor

Edit a copy of your edisting workspace.

Choose tool

Add a palette or find the plug-in on the left hand side (under the JDGS category) drag the tool to the right hand side to the palette of your choice.
