Vectorworks 2012 Status

Vectorworks installs flawlessly and seems to run great with one big exception; The CAD lines are invisible. They will highlight somewhat if moused-over or clicked, but always revert to being invisible.

Hi...

...suggestions on winehq say this app relies on
gdiplus. and the display quirks you mention may be
related to that area ; try installing the following
into the same bottle and retry the app ;

Cheers!

Excellent! Installed that and it works great now! I shall have to create a cross-tie for this now...

Another note:
Vectorworks will crash everytime you exit. No real issue, just annoying.

Pressing "Tab" to input different measurements to lock to is buggy. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. I haven't figured out what exactly causes it to work or not work.

I recently installed Vectorworks 2012 on a Mac with the latest version of Crossover. I ran into some issues with the installation program; Copying the files from a working Windows installation worked for me. The program seems to run fairly well, although there are still several noticeable bugs. Additionally, it seems to run slower than natively on Windows. (Although I have no evidence to prove this one way or another.)

Are you still using VW? Do you use the latest version?
