Trying to export a Vectorworks (19) model into Capture (Nexum).

All of my instrument data comes in just fine, but the model of the theatre is at a smaller scale and I can't figure out what I'm missing.

All my design layers in this VW file are 1:1. I know it's a problem with the model and not with the imported instruments because when I clone something in the imported model by say, 2', it moves way further than "2 feet" would be.

What am I missing? I've done this before with no issues.

Hey Lars,

It ended up being that the units box on the import screen was set to 0 - setting it to 1 fixed the issue.
