Vision opens .mvr, .v3s, .3ds, .obj, and .esc files that were created or saved in Vision, or exported from another program such as Vectorworks. Consider the advantages of Merging files instead.
When .mvr, .3ds, and .obj files are opened, the Use Normals setting on the Document preferences: Rendering tab is enabled by default, even if it was previously deselected. If the normals are incorrect, they can be fixed when setting the Import options or by Adjusting the normals.
The three most recently opened files are listed in the File menu. Select a file to open it.
If a file was sent from the Vectorworks program using the Send to Vision command, Vision launches automatically and opens the file.
To open an existing file:
1. Select File > Open.
2.Select the file to open, and click Open.
Depending on the selected file format, the Import options dialog box opens.
3.Specify the import options.
To create a new file:
Select File > New.
A new, blank file opens.
