    Changing Channel Numbers in Vectorworks?

    Do you have a link to a guide I can find? I either get 90 pages of stuff I don't want or nothing when I search. I've been to the support forum, the vectorwiki, and google, but nothing is helping me run these scripts. I'm essentially done with my drafting for this show, but anything to speed up...

    Changing Channel Numbers in Vectorworks?

    Thanks for that AutoPlot link! Now the stupid questions...I downloaded the folder for VW08, but I can't figure out what to do with it. I have a ton of promising looking .vsm files. What now?

    Design Vectorworks Scale Bar

    I've done a search for this (both on the web and in here) but can't find much help. I'm using Vectorworks 2008 and would like to place a scale on the drafting for the ease of the electricians, but can't get the gimpy one with the program to work right. It looks odd and I can't get the size...
