Moving from AutoCAD Part III

Part three of this video series demonstrates how Vectorworks can elevate your schematic 3D model to a source that will generate construction documents and project reports. Jump right in and see how you can apply wall styles, select generic floor objects and replace with slab styles, generate plan drawings, and more.

You can watch Part I here, and Part II here.

Manipulating 3D Geometry: Editing Solids

In this video, we’ll review editing the history of 3D geometry. Specifically, we’ll review adjusting the base geometry with tools and commands such as Add Solids and adjusting the Vectorworks Preferences for showing other objects while in editing modes. This video is part of a series. Check out the 3D Free-form Modeling guide on our training page to learn more and watch the associated videos.
