This is a comment on the entire Productivity posts – Thank you! It has been a great refresher and source of new tips. I greatly appreciate these posts.
Can you do the Modify commands ‘Compose’ and Decompose’ – when to use and when not to use.
Group and Ungroup would also be helpful.
Thanks again Jonathan!

great suggestions. I will look for a way to cover these. I haven’t even uploaded half of the productivity movies yet
When I tried to use textured beds on the site model as you indicated I was unable to edit textures. I was hoping to add more than just colours but apply textures from the VW library in order to model surface treatments or construction material applied.
Thanks,
I have tried this on Vectorworks 2013 and I have found that I am able to create textures and apply the textures to the texture beds. But in order to do this, you must set up the classes to have the texture applied. It might be a good idea to set up different classes for different areas of the texture beds.
