VBE Issues

Wokka — Tue, 09 May 2023 11:14:51 GMT

Just running through my first VBE file for presentation and I'm having a few issues:
- Firstly, I think we need a VBE forum area, specifically for the software, as it's a Graphisoft product, we shouldn't need to rely on archicadwiki to have all the issues.
- Reflections??
- I know they are looking at the problem, but getting the 'save as' display to the from is a real pain. Espescially with two monitors running, I'm not sure where the window is half the time. Also, I was trying to do a screen capture of my flythrough , and the software couldn't figure out which window to capture and I kept losing control. (Yep , I have an ATI graphics card...)
- With two monitors, after using VBE and going back to Archicad, my archicad window has shrunk back to a single monitor, and requires restretching every time.
- The sun position should be related to the ArchiCad file or at least have north to the 'top' of the model.
- Is there a roadmap for development of VBE?? It's still a great product, just niggling issues that I've had so far. It would be nice to know Graphisoft are taking this software seriously and are going to improve it.

Cheers

I can't say about the other bits but the "save as" dialgue appearing in front has been fixed in what is now called BIMx for version 15.

Thanks Barry (again.. ; ).
I've just got R15 two days ago and it's still sitting in it's box, clients won't spare me the time to have a play.
Maybe I jumped the gun a bit, and I'll revisit the issues when I've done the upgrade.
Cheers

I agree that it'd be nice to have a dedicated forum area for:

BIMx
MEP modeler
EcoDesigner

There's information about all 3 scattered about, but it'd be really nice to just go to a spot and read up on them. Especially EcoDesigner.

These usually all go to the Other Products forum.
