Heather Fagans Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 Just started checking out the linear material tool in VW12. The only one that actually has a fill when drawn is the gyp board. Change the type in the OIP to anything else and there is no fill, no special class to turn on, nothing. Any thoughts on how I can rectify this? thanks -heather VW12 500MHZ PowerPC G4 OS 10.4.4 Quote Link to comment
Heather Fagans Posted February 9, 2006 Author Share Posted February 9, 2006 So apparently this is not a hot topic amongst the users... Does anyone use this tool? -h Quote Link to comment
Peter Huggins Posted February 9, 2006 Share Posted February 9, 2006 Hi Heather, I believe the settings that have the word "detail" in the name have a fill pattern of some type. Are you not seeing this? Quote Link to comment
Vectorworks, Inc Employee klinzey Posted February 9, 2006 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted February 9, 2006 The detailed versions should have a filled stipple pattern. The handeling of attributes for the linear material tool will be improved with the next maintenance release. Quote Link to comment
Heather Fagans Posted February 13, 2006 Author Share Posted February 13, 2006 Thanks, Peter, Kevin. It may be that I'm not at a large enough scale to see the stipple pattern, but typically we don't detail at larger than 3"=1'-0". I played around with it a little more, and there does seem to be a fill for the plywood linear material type, but not until at a scale much larger than we actually use. I'll continue to use hatches rather than this tool for now. Thanks again Quote Link to comment
