I have to say that I can't STAND Vectorworks!
After a decade of AutoCAD it feels like some kind of toy. Call it VagueCAD and you would have a better idea. Even after four years of use I can't stand it... nasty! (we're still on V11.5 BTW)
After that I think OS X finder is pretty crap.
I just had a quick search and found this thread. I have been doing it the other way round; SU>Vectorworks
I have been exporting all the views I need from SU as DWG then importing them to Vectorworks in order to detail over the top of them.
I wish there was a more transparent way of having the whole model in VW, especially the colours and solid shapes, because it takes a lot of time to rebuild the drawing in VW.
I have on one occasion exported to PNG, which exports shaded objects as 2D faceted objects so the shading is retained, but I have had to import the PNG to Illustrator then export/import to VW... which messes up the scale 
An example is attached... the images are just JPG exports BTW

I'd never thought of actually drawing whilst changing scene ether. Thanks!

Why is that?
Well if I am going to take time to go to a seminar I would want to know that it is well worth the trip, cost and time wise.
I'm London based and would be up for a mini seminar somewhere. I have been using SU since V2.
I'm up for it. I like the Berlin suggestion, but a couple of day trip anywhere in Europe is a goer for me.
I would feel a lot more comfortable going if there was some Google input though.
inio you are a Genius
I sometimes like to use my girlfriend's macbook at home (I normally use a MacPro at work) and found the hang time on SU was just unbearable.
Your fix has totally sorted it; amazing... how come Google don't sort this on a release, or even put your patch on the help site?
It is even making me wonder whether to save the cash on the difference between buying a MacBook Pro vs MacBook for my home machine...
Nice model, very 'architectural' out of interest, where is it?
