cadmovie_1610-01 – What’s New In Vectorworks 2017 – Part 1
Resource Manager – When you look at the new Resource Manager, it may look like an updated Resource Browser, but it is much more than that. The Resource Manager has been embedded throughout Vectorworks. this means that whenever you look for a resource, the resource manager will appear showing you the best results. The resource manager can look for files on your computer, and your favourites, in your user folder, and your workgroup folder, in the Vectorworks libraries (some are on your computer and some are online), and in the Vectorworks subscription libraries (VSS).

Alright, seriously, the Resource Browser has been replaced with a new Resource Manager. This resource manager does a lot more than just replace the resource browser, It Is now implemented throughout vector works every time you need to find a resource. This is a fantastic improvement.
The first thing I found with the new Resource Manager is that it has an auto hide function. But in order to make this useful, moving out of the way so that you do not accidentally activate auto hide.
