Vue F.A.Q (Last Updated: 2024 Nov 26 6:57 am)
Yep, that's a problem... for me, too.
Here, that copy/paste thing from one session to the next doesn't always work.
Sometimes, in V5Inf v.8, one could leave open the material summary of the preceeding scene,
but that lo longer works in 5.o9, on my Mac.
For the cams, I'd try it the other way 'round : group everything needed, in scene B, save it as one .vob,
and lod it into a copy of A, where are the cams.
Depends, on what you got in scene B...
thanks GPF,
I did try 'drag and dropping' my materials from old to new VUE projects w/ multiple sessions of VUE.
It's DECEIVING, because at first you think it's working like a charm... then I find that YOU CAN'T SAVE YOUR FILE ANY MORE... nice. THATS a problem... and I can duplicate it over and over... I tried 3 or 4 diff. times. It worked for me the first couple of times... then nothing.
another thing is... I have almost never exited out of VUE in the traditional way of the file>exit pulldown... it has crashed on my 99% of the times I've ever used it. As a long-time user of ACAD, VIZ, FormZ, Microstation, Sketchup, and many more... I can say that VUE is the only program that does this to me.
Im on Mac, and Vue works quite differently, there. I saw Vue on bicore PC open two scene windows, which is not possible on Mac, as far as I know. It seems to me, that opening two windows at same time, at least for v.5.o9, is more a bug than a feature. Is perhaps something e-on prepares for the future. Now, with two windows open simultaneously, Vue takes a hell of a time to respond, up to several minutes. And it does not close as it shoud, requires seveal assaults to give in, and the finally crashes. I fear that Vue 5.o9 isn't yet capable to distinctly manage the content of two scene files. Seems it doesn't know which data belongs to which scene. I'm not astonished, that it crashes, then - I think that e-on would have announced such a feature, to have several scenes open simultaneauosly, with great publicity (I ask for such a possiblity, since more than a year...:-). Well, that gives me hope, that they'll manage such a feature in a future version, with intra-Vue copy/paste, let's say, for v.6.o9-o9.97 ? Wow... and jest paste images into the materials editors, copied from image apps, or drag/drop'em without browsing all disk... dreaming of a white christmas. Up to now, the only ways I know to clean transfer materials, objects and such from one scene to an other, is, to save them from the first scene to disk (either mats, atmosheres, and objects individually, into the 'collections', or thousands of things grouped togeteher into one .vob file), close the scene, open the other one, and load the saved item into the scene. For simple things, it seems to be sufficient to 'copy' the item before closing the first scene, and 'paste' it when the second scene came up (without saving to disk the copied thing), but that seems to have limits, when copying more complicated things. I didn't yet try that with animation...

I have 2 complex animated cameras I did in Vue File A, now I want to 'import' those cameras into Vue File B... any way I can do this?
I saved some of my other objects as .vob files and was able to impor them piece of cake... but other planes and things I'm running into probs...
Any VUE beta testers reading this... let VUE know that I love the drag-and-drop texture feature between open sessions of VUE 5 i... now only if I could drag and drop anything else between sessions... or right-click copy-paste between sessions... that would be very useful at least for us architects.
