VW & their engineers need to collaborate with those who typically use it & have creative minds.

Designers use their right hemisphere and are known as innovative people are considered "right-brain thinkers"! Whilst the software is clearly written/coded/updated by engineers who are "left-brain thinkers" abd are thought to be analytical and logical. There's a complete disconnect between those, who make the software and those who use it. I believe VectorWorks needs to simplify the software and collaborate with those who use it. Typically there are 2 or 3 ways to produce one action which both confusing and unnecessary. SketchUp and Shoot are straightforward to use and I believe VectorWorks need to take note from their competitors and use this consructive feedback to make it logical for us creatives.

I have been using Vectorworks since it's inception as Blueprint in 1987

Once you become familiar with the Basic Fundementals of the software, it allows for design in it's purist form, rather than having to think about what tool is needed in order to design.
