DEG cabinet areas Copy 1.vwx I checked both my OS on the laptop and my desktop. My desktop was still on the previous service pack and was having the same challenge. I'm not sure if it's something in the file that's corrupting. File attached Thanks

Have come across a small issue. My drawing register is set up, as per @Nikolay Zhelyazkov's suggestion above, so that only title blocks where I've ticked "activate title block" are included in the register. That's fine - I can have various drawing sheets that are works-in-progress and choose not to have them included in the register until they are actually ready to be issued. However, if I duplicate an existing sheet layer, which has that box unticked, then the new sheet layer is given a new sheet number, but that number is not reflected in its title block. So for example I have sheet number 250, and duplicate it, and VW automatically numbers the duplicated version 251 (which is what I want) but sheet 251's title block still has 250 as its sheet number. I have to tick and then untick the "activate title block" box in order to get it to display the correct number. Is this intended behaviour?

You are the best, thank you. I'll try and PM you in a day or two. Thank you, Dave

I have also been a puzzled as to why this happens when you transform a polyline into a polygon/hardscape. This also happens with 3d contours, making the proliferation of vertices an issue.

Still looking for some help on this. Is there a way to uninstall and reinstall vwx cloud services?

Tom, Yes, I am aware of Version 2024 cabinet improvements. Want to see what else will be brought to the table.

You know there was a big update to Cabinets in VW2024 if you have access to it? Countertops will be VW2025 I think...

This works for me. Thank you!

Tom, Thank you. Waiting to see what version 2025 brings, especially cabinets and countertops.

You could use a Structural Member to represent a LVL beam but you won't be able to style it in VW2019...

Tom, Thank you for the reply. Think built up beam or girder for residential construction. Say (3) 2x10. 2x12 or LVL. Sorry, need to update my page. Currently using 2019 Architect.

Not sure what you mean by a 'Beam'. You can create Structural Member styles since VW2023 (I think) if that's any use? Your signature says you're using VW2012 + VW2013 which is presumably out of date...?

Hi, for a partlist I created a record -> worksheet that lists dimensions for extrudes by =LENGTH, =WIDTH and =HEIGHT perfectly. For =OBJECTTYPENAME Channel - 3D there is value 0 (zero) with this function. I tried to find a function reference and tested =OBJECTDATA(SEL; 'cover physical length') but the result is #OPCODE?. The length value I want to list in the worksheet (or spreadsheet?) is the one in the Object Info - Shape window of the Detailing -> Channel - 3D object. This length value is not part of the record. I just want to avoid to add the length manually to the record... What did I wrong? Is there an easy way? Thanks for help! Peter VW2022 SP3.

Is there a way to create different Beam Styles like we do for walls and slabs?

Sorry for the delay, missed the notification for your answer. I checked your file and there are no issues there. Try this. 1) Open TBManager 2) Optionally, select which sheets to edit 3) Go to Issue Data pane and click on Add and enter the Issue data 4) Go to Project Revision History pane and make sure you have selected to create/update this report 5) Close the manager with OK 6) Find the worksheet in the resource manager and notice how there is 1 issue added in it as the last column with the data that you have entered + some of the rows have a revision number - the current revision for that issue of the sheet

LOL love the playlist! Agree, Vw has come a long way in those 9 yrs. I just don't want them to rest on their laurels here.

hello. I'm tryind to adjust the door already 40 min, this is crazy, every action, starting from opening the dialog window is very slow, every change tooks minutes, even just tyiping in the numbers. Moving the door also took 30+ seconds. It is not possible to work like that. Is it possible to do smth with that? VW 24 update 4

It's Shift-Option-8 on a Mac. Don't know about Windows. °

Is there a way to type a degree angle symbol, the little 'o' above a number? There obviously is one as it appears on angular dimensions but I just want to add it to call out text... TIA

Please see attached a test file, I deleted the information from the design layer because the file was quite heavy but I didnt change anything else. Thanks1683_300_ EDW 240402 Test file no info.vwx1683_300_ EDW 240402 Test file no info.vwx 1683_300_ EDW 240402 Test file no info.vwx

@Helga Heins so to me it seems like the Project Revision History should give you the results you want. As I said, this report reports on Issue Data and the Current Revision Number for each Issue, so in order to have anything in it you should first create Issues and then create Revisions. If you can share a test file or PM me the actual file I can check to confirm if you have Issues or not.

When I use the preformatted report it recognizes the pages but not the actual revision, so not sure how it works 🙃

I don't know what it is called but I mean the little command library that you open when you press the first button at the top left within the VS Script interface (Im using VW 2023). In the category Miscellaneous there is CE_TransformVector(h: HANDLE; VAR dx: REAL; VAR dy: REAL; VAR dz: REAL); with the description: 'Transforms a vector using h TransformMatrix' Maybe it doesn't exist in VW 24

Hello Nikolay, Thank you for your response, I tried creating it like that but the sheets are not showing in the worksheet, not sure why. Please see below. However, looking at the schedule, i am not sure it is what I am looking for, basically its the document/drawing issue for the record of all the revisions, we currently do it in Excel but it will be helpful if it can relate to the actual file. to display when it was issue and the latest revision letters etc. see attached. Thank you!
