CW2020 Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 (edited) On file hosting websites (such as Dropbox and Google Drive), can you link /connect VWX files? Edited January 11, 2022 by CW2020 Quote Link to comment
markdd Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 If I understand your question, you are referring to the referencing capabilities of Vectorworks. Both Dropbox and Google drive are able to support files that are referenced between one another. 1 Quote Link to comment

Pat Stanford Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 You can link to either a fixed file path or to a relative file path. My recommendation is that for project specific files you put all the files in the same folder and use a relative file path. If you have reference stuff that doesn't change project to project you can use the absolute referencing. But be careful If it is on Dropbox/Google and someone moves their top level folder the absolute file path on their drive will change. The same applies to people using different names for their hard disks. The file path for different people may be different. 1 Quote Link to comment
