welshpe Posted December 1, 2004 Share Posted December 1, 2004 Does anyone use the piping pallete in VW Architect to do plumbing? I can't seem to find any good tutorials on the use of this pallete. I need to do plumbing plans AND isometrics. I can get it to work somewhat, but it seems I must be missing something. One thing I found is that when viewing in isometric, the linetype does not hold. I have some of the lines dashed, etc., but when shown in isometric they lose the dash. Maybe an add-on is needed? Quote Link to comment
welshpe Posted December 3, 2004 Author Share Posted December 3, 2004 Since nobody aparently uses the piping PIO, maybe VW should remove it from the program to allow for some function that people use, like a rendering option that doesn't take half days to regenerate! Quote Link to comment

Unfortunately, dashed linestyles are 2D only attributes. If you want to differentiate piping in 3D, you'll need to use pen weight or color (or both). Quote Link to comment
welshpe Posted December 4, 2004 Author Share Posted December 4, 2004 Thanks, I thought that may be the case. Any tutorials out there? Quote Link to comment
