Auto Hybrid Objects

These interactive objects create and update 2D Hybrid Geometry based on any 3D geometry that is contained.

Data Tags

All objects hold data. One of the best ways to display that data is with Data Tags.

Equipment Summary Keys

It is essential to identify and understand the graphics we all use when creating drawings. Most drawings use Keys or Legends to do this. 

Inventory & Equipment Lists

There are several ways to count inventory in the program, but Vectorworks Spotlight has a specific Command that allows you to count equipment quantities based on what has been added to a drawing and compare these quantities with multiple inventories.

Chord Snapping

There is a feature available within Rigging Objects called Chord Snapping. This enables Lighting Devices and other Load objects to locate the core of a pipe or linear object. 

Worksheets (pre 2026)

Worksheets are the principle method for extracting data from any object in the drawing to present within a spreadsheet format.
