DBLD Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 Hi, I don't know if I am missing something but I can't see the box to enter the angle for custom plan rotation of a lighting fixture symbol. Has this moved? Thanks, Dan Quote Link to comment
DBLD Posted February 13, 2022 Author Share Posted February 13, 2022 A bit more information here. I am running Vectorworks 2022. I recently updated from SP2 to SP2.1 on my Windows machine which is were I noticed the Custom Plan Rotation angle field missing. Tonight I booted up my MacBook and opened Vectorworks 2022. It was running SP2, the missing field was there. I updated to SP2.1 and it is missing. Has it moved or is it not an option now? 1 Quote Link to comment
JBenghiat Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 Open up your Spotlight Preferences and go to the parameters section. If you’re using a custom configuration, save it. Switch to the default Spotlight configuration Switch back to your configuration Even though the custom configuration checkbox is visible in your parameter configuration, changes to 2022 mean that the accompanying rotation field isn’t getting loaded. Re-loading your setting seems to do the trick. Quote Link to comment

pfalvi Posted March 7, 2022 Share Posted March 7, 2022 This didn't work for me- I can't make the rotation field appear at all. Any other thoughts out there? I'm on a Windows 11 machine, SP2.1. Thanks! Quote Link to comment
DBLD Posted March 8, 2022 Author Share Posted March 8, 2022 This is my fix which is a slight variation of @JBenghiat's solution. There is still issues though. Open up your Spotlight Preferences and go to the parameters section. If you’re using a custom configuration, save it. Switch to the default Spotlight configuration I found swapping back to the custom configuration as JBenghiat suggested lost the custom rotation box again. Editing the default Spotlight configuration allows me to get the custom setup again however when I close and reopen Vectorworks I have the exact same issue again, so I reload the default configuration, edit it and use Vectorworks normally. Each time I close the program I need to do this again. Quote Link to comment
pfalvi Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 Huh, interesting @DBLD. Thanks for the advice! That's working for me for the time being. Hope that gets fixed sometime! Quote Link to comment
