• 07:14    creating a new note and choosing the description
• 11:29    discussion about choosing the options for the note legend and keynote text, choosing whether to use prefixes, numbers, or descriptions
• 33:43   discussion about upgrading your old workspace to the new version of Vectorworks, or starting from the new vision of Vectorworks and slightly modifying a standard workspace, because if you copy an old workspace into the new version of Vectorworks you might lose many of the new tools or concepts
