Arch00015.pngCreating a New Project Preference Set

While the Vectorworks Architect product installs with six project preference sets, it supports the use of an unlimited number. To add preference sets beyond the default options, manually create additional preference folders and then add the set to the list of defined sets using the VA Set Project Prefs command.

The project preference set folder must contain the following files for correct operation:

     Door Hardware Library.txt

     Equipment Record.txt

     Equipment Schedule.txt

     Plumbing Fixt Record.txt

     Plumbing Schedule.txt

     VA2 Records and Schedules.txt

     VA_Project_Set.txt

If additional records and schedules are defined using the VA Records and Schedules command, their data files are stored in the project preference set folder.

Adding a Project Preference Set

After creating a project preference set, add it to the list of project preference sets available:

1. Select Tools > Options > VA Set Project Prefs.

2. The VA Preference Sets dialog box opens. Click Add.

The Add Preference Set dialog box opens. Specify the name and location of the project preference set.

3. Click OK to return to the VA Preference Sets dialog box. To use the new project preference set, select it from the list and click Done.
