In this session, we demonstrated a method for creating exterior panels that you can easily line up with window and door openings, as well as covering how to create a class filter and how to duplicate styled windows for a job.

In this session, we demonstrated how to discover what the elevation is of any point on your site model, how to handle using a wall style with a framing component and using trusses, making cladding lines line up by using the Use World Z for Origin fix, creating exterior wall panels by using extrusions, getting tags to work with walls and to say what you want, reporting tag data, and working with record formats.

In this session, we covered the Publish command, reviewed lining up and changing the graphics of a Custom Stair, and looked at using a Fastener object for creating 2D or 3D nuts and bolts.

In this session, we covered issues related to using classes and objects such as Windows.

In this session, we covered the ability to assign components to classes, starting with wall style components and moving on to door and window components. We also showed how to import door settings you like from one door to the rest of the doors in your project, as well as comparing Vectorworks door settings to WinDoor settings and managing classes by reassigning objects and filtering classes.

In this session, we looked at the concept of tags, including space objects and their tags, tags in viewports, and the Data Tag tool, as well as discussing how the Data Tag tool, worksheets, and record formats can give you more control over your model data.

In this session, we wanted to cover some wall topics in greater detail, such as using walls to Auto-Bound slabs, bounding a slab component horizontally by a wall part (e.g., inner face of wall), using stories to have additional bottom-bounding and top-bounding options for wall components.

In this session, we created a custom handrail, as well as a U-shaped stair and a circular stair, discussed workarounds for a tricky corner window, showed how to import and export IFC or Revit models, and demonstrated how to make a flyover movie using an Animation Path.

In this session, we worked out how to cut a profile into the edge of a slab, made a wall that went up at a slope before returning to vertical, showed how to manage stories when one floor is only 2 feet below another, demonstrated how to add profiles onto the ends of rafters and beams, and covered how to copy objects along a curve

In this session, we looked at techniques for dealing with troublesome wall heights and joints, reviewed how the Section-Elevation Marker tool in Unconstrained Mode shows the option of linking to a viewport, and introduced working with Spaces and Space objects.

In this session, we looked at adding blocks of text to Vectorworks, making irregular Section cuts, creating the look of interior wallpaper, as well as using stories, taking advantage of the levels of detail that you can build into a symbol, reviewing turning on and off class visibility through the Organization dialogue box, and discussing the benefits of using Saved Views.

In this session, we covered how to set up the architectural and structural components of Column objects and how to have their type, amount, and cost show up on a report. We also demonstrated how to use the Create Similar Object tool and discussed tips for using more than one monitor and multiple view panes.

In this session, we covered joining wall components, demonstrated a fix for a WinDoor problem, experimented with creating various lighting sources, and reviewed how to change the look of an object in a viewport by using the Class Override function.

In this session, we covered placing comments on drawings, working with interior elevations, including the extents beyond and before the cut plane, using object styles instead of symbols for creating door and window elevation drawings, and placing tags with the Data Tag tool.

In this session, we discussed creating trusses, using the class visibility options, getting an object that spans two floors to show up on both floor plans, using the new Tag tool, and using the Reference Marker and Section-Elevation Marker tools instead of the Tag tool in some situations.

In this session, we explored a problem that someone was having with the Create Interior Elevation Viewport command and then covered several new features in Vectorworks 2019: filters, the Extends Before Cut Plane setting for sections, the option to turn a Clip Cube view into a section viewport, the horizontal section, the Data Tag tool, and textures from the mtextur website.

In this session, we discussed working with layer and class visibilities, speeding up publishing by using VSS Cloud Services, speeding up workflows by using Saved Views, joining collinear walls, remedying a bad file, and selecting files when adding an issue or revision.
