Creating an adjacency matrix worksheet

To create an adjacency matrix worksheet:

From the Resource Manager, select New Resource, select Worksheet, and then click Create. Alternatively, from the Resource Manager, select Worksheets from the list of resource types on the tool bar, and click New Worksheet.

Create the adjacency matrix, using every other row for space names and areas, and alternate rows for specifying the relationships among the spaces.

Any third-party spreadsheet program that can save a tab- or comma-delimited text file can be used to create the adjacency matrix. Ensure that there is at least one cell containing data on each spreadsheet row. Certain spreadsheet programs do not export rows without data, which could disrupt the expected sequence of data in the file as it is imported into the Vectorworks file.

Click File > Export > Export Worksheet to export the worksheet as a tab- or comma-delimited file, and specify the name and location of the file.
