Data Visualization
Data visualization is a visual tool that allows the user to change the graphical attributes or style of an object based solely on the data stored within the object.
Projection Types
All CAD software allows the user to view the 2D and 3D geometry using a variety of different drafting conventions.
Importing DWG Files
Despite the large presence of Vectorworks in the entertainment sector, the DWG file format used by AutoCAD is still dominant for the exchange of CAD drawings. It is therefore very important that a designer can work with these drawings if required.
Classes
Most CAD programs have a built-in method of managing the character and visibility of the objects that you create in the Drawing Window.
Groups
Groups are a selection of Vectorworks geometry held together to form a Group of objects. Groups work equally well on 2D and 3D objects.
All the ways to select an object
There are many ways to Select objects in Vectorworks. These can vary depending on the object.
Dimension Toolset
Dimensions on drawings immediately convey crucial information about the project.
Class & Layer Naming Conventions
It is important early on in your practice with Vectorworks to develop some rigorous drawing standards of your own
Library Files
Where are the Resource library files and what do they do
Editing Vertex based objects
Many Objects that Vectorworks creates are generated by following a path
