I have a recurring problem with importing fixtures from Vectorworks (using VW 2020). Most of the fixtures end up where they are supposed to be, but several get thrown way out in the virtual space, 100s of feet away. Is there a fix for this? Is anyone else experiencing this?

What is the measuring system you are using to export data from VW (metric or imperial) and is there a chance you are exporting fractional values? If yes could you choose not to export fractional values and have another try?

Thank you so much,

I use imperial, but the problem was the fractions, when I changed VW to use decimal it worked great.
