![]() This content is available from the Resource Selector when a tool is selected. Object Styles libraries: This content includes configured styles for use by Vectorworks tools, such as the Door, Plant, Data Tag, and Title Block Border tools. See Vectorworks preferences: Session pane. However, if Enable Vectorworks Libraries is disabled, most default and objects styles content is unavailable, and many tools will not function properly. If you don’t want default Vectorworks content to display in these locations, disable the Enable Vectorworks Libraries and/or the Enable online content preference on the Session pane of the Vectorworks preferences. Default content libraries are available in the Resource Manager and Resource Selector, and in various locations in the Vectorworks application, such as the Text Style list on the Tool bar for the Text tool. There are three categories of Vectorworks libraries:ĭefault libraries: Default content includes resources such as attributes, textures, and text styles that are accessed from multiple locations in the software. The files are organized by professional discipline and subject. The libraries available depend on which Vectorworks products you have licensed. Click Update or Download and Update to bring your libraries up to date. If your library catalog is out of date, an alert displays when you launch Vectorworks. New libraries are added periodically, as well. For each new Vectorworks version, previously exclusive premium libraries are moved to this catalog. The Vectorworks libraries are available to all users. If you don’t want the premium libraries to display, disable the Enable Premium Libraries preference on the Session pane of the Vectorworks preferences. Click the Sign In button at the top right corner of the application window, or click the Sign in link under the Premium Libraries section of the Resource Manager. If you’re a Vectorworks Service Select member, sign in to your Vectorworks account to access exclusive content libraries for members. If you work mostly offline and would like to have the content locally available, you can add these libraries during installation, or download them any time with the Vectorworks Package Manager (see Installing Vectorworks libraries locally). The Resource Manager and Resource Selector allow you to browse the content online, and they will automatically download the required files on demand. From the Resource Manager, you can also drag a library resource directly onto your drawing. For example, you can browse line type resources from the Attributes palette, and browse plant styles (Vectorworks Landmark required) from the Plant tool’s Tool bar.įrom both the Resource Manager and Resource Selector, you can drag a library resource to a file in the file browser pane to easily import it. The Resource Selector has a similar browser pane, to provide access to resource libraries at the point of use. In the Resource Manager palette, the file browser pane (on the left) provides easy access to the resource libraries for even faster access, designate frequently used libraries as “favorites.” Hundreds of resource libraries are available for use with the Vectorworks application, and you can add custom libraries, as well.
