Learning Objectives
Identify the various 3D modeling technologies and techniques in Vectorworks Fundamentals.
Recognize the extensive file import and export options available in Fundamentals including avenues to 3D printing and other fabrication.
Discuss the process of modeling your work and creating its associated 2D drawings.
Describe the range of rendering styles available to depict and present your project.
Experience more freedom when transforming your models. The new 3D Dragger will always appear in front of the selected objects for easy access, and contextual handles for translation, rotation, and scale provide comprehensive and intuitive ways to transform selected objects without disruptions. Additional modes like snap-free, planar, and auxiliary rotation options give you the control you need to make your modeling process smoother.
