Service Description

Participants will learn the drawing philosophy around Vectorworks, and the core work flow around the software. This course will teach users how to navigate around the Vectorworks interface, such as menu items, view bar, toolbars, palettes, respective sub-sections. This course will also cover document organisation in terms of classes, layers, sheets, viewports, views and document references.
