"Save" window too large

[mpkeane]

I am using a macbook pro OS12.2.1 (with external large format monitor), with VW 2020SP6

 

I have used VW for many years with no problem. Now, when I save a VW document, the "Save Vectorworks Drawing" window that pops up has suddenly become enormous. It fits vertically on my monitor but in the horizontal direction is stretches way off the screen to the left and right. If I slide the save window over to grab the lower right-hand corner, I can shrink the window size vertically, but not horizontally. (I can make the window bigger horizontally but not smaller).

 

I have tried closing and restarting VW, as well as shutting down and restarting the computer. Still the same.

 

How can I "reset", this aspect of VW?

AFAIK this was fixed for VW 2021 SP6.

 

I doubt there will ever come a further SP for VW 2020.

And Monterey is only supported by VW 2021 and VW 2022.

Means you would need either downgrade your Mac to Big Sur

or Catalina, or upgrade VW.

Hello. I'm using VW 2022 SP2.1 and still have the same issue. Funny enough this issue didn't come up until I upgraded to VW 2022. Still trying to find a fix with no resolve.

Upgrade to VW2022 SP3.

I'm in Australia I just called Customer Support they said it will be released for Australian users after final rounds of testing hopefully it will be resolved then.

I'm on VW 2020 SP5 and this is how my export window is behaving.

The window cannot be resized smaller; only bigger. It then hangs onto that bigger size forever.

 

I cannot upgrade to VW2022 as we keep our files in the format they were started on.

we are still using VW 2020 (simply cause its too expensive to update regularly) and the issue is annoying, I cant help but feel that VW isnt adressing this just to force people to update. Such a simple missbehaving call of a system dialog box seems too weird to not be easily fixable even for VW versions older than "up to date" . Take a slice from apple, I could still run up to date iOS on my iphone 6s+ and even phones that can be supported anymore still get security and bugfix updates of the last iOS versions.

THATS how you should do it, then people will buy your expensive product.
