For All Industries

D5 Render Live Sync

Available on Windows operating systems, this new plugin lets you create a live sync between your Vectorworks model and D5 Render, a real-time rendering software that you can use to create photorealistic images of your projects with still images, animations, and panoramas.

The addition of a live sync with D5 Render expands your options for rendering platforms to use alongside Vectorworks, giving you ultimate flexibility in choosing your preferred program.

Performance & Stability When Updating Referenced Layers & Design Layer Viewports

Quicker processing times when updating referenced data results in minimized delays and a smoother overall experience.

Copy/Paste Database Rows in Worksheets

Database rows that define the parameters being reporting into a worksheet can be copied and pasted in the same worksheet or between worksheets. This makes it easier to re-use complex formulas for detailed reporting.

Image Effects Can Be Transferred Between Viewports Using the Eyedropper Tool

This allows you to quickly match image effect settings between viewports and images without the need to set up or update a viewport style, ensuring consistency between visualizations.

For the Architecture Industry

Elevation Benchmark Control Points Now Move with Viewports

An Elevation Benchmark control point inside a viewport now functions relative to that viewport’s geometry. This makes making changes to your viewports a connected process, since control points will move along with their viewport.

For the Architecture & Landscape Industries

Ongoing IFC 4 Support

You’ll experience greater reliability when exporting to IFC 4, and you’ll find support for custom symbols in IFC exports.

For the Entertainment Industry

Simplified Inventory Reports

You’ll notice a new option to create a simplified Inventory Report of all gear shown in the Inventory dialog. This option allows a fast output for a quick overview of gear in your Vectorworks file without having to use a database-driven worksheet.
