This is brilliant! I would contribute to a go fund me to pay this persons salary. They could be paid based on the number of clicks they reduce Vectorworks has this nasty habit of requiring as many clicks as Any way that Vectorworks could look into hiring a full time click reducer? There are so many tasks that require many more clicks than should be necessary. if it isnt, go into the title block in the resource browser, click edit, copy all the bits in the title block, go back into the 'Style' and 'title block layout' as per my previous instructions and paste it in there. What do you see? is your old title block there somewhere but way off the page? if it is, move it. Right click this 'Style' and press edit, it will then take you back into that new title block pop up, click 'title block' in the left column and then click 'edit title block layout' of that section. We named our title Block KKL Title block, and with 2018 now have an automatically generated KKL title block 'Style' in the resource browser. What happens when, after doing this you open your resource browser, go into 'Symbols/plugin objects' and find the title block 'Style'? My office of 40 staff, could not use this version currently, as it would take countless hours converting and setting every page, of every drawing. We are a service select subscriber but I see no added value to this service if the updates don't function as well as previous versions.Įxactly what is happening to every drawing created in 2017 with a title block and border. I am lucky enough to still have VW2017 on my station and will be using this until the title block stuff gets sorted out. I've tried inputting dates from the settings menu and double-clicking on the title block and directly inputting the date, this works until I exit the title block edit and the date disappears. all other fields work fine, just not my date field. Now the converted title block issue I am having is that after title block conversion the date field no longer works. and re-opening the settings box does show a scale factor of 0. yea sure you can enter whatever number you want but it does not change anything. but it's hanging over the sheet border a bit, this is where I'd use scale factor in VW2017 to reduce it to something like 0.98 or similar to make it fit. went back, started with a fresh sheet, add sheet border, open title block settings, set scale factor to 1, because regardless of what Vectorworks is saying the scale factor has defaulted to zero, then I add my title block, click ok and its there. so I read through this thread and saw the scale factor issue. I haven't had issues with converted title blocks moving but what I have had an issue with and found a fix for, when placing the sheet border, then importing my title block using the menu selector in the settings box, I'd add my block (shown in the preview) but when I click ok there is no title block on the sheet.
