It’s interesting how you think you know something inside and
out and then along comes a simple tool that you had no idea existed. I have
been using Vulcan software for seven years and would rank myself as a highly
skilled user which is why I was surprised to learn about a Vulcan menu option
that does exactly what I have wished Vulcan would do for years: converting text to an object.
Vulcan text can be converted to an object using the menu
option: File > Underlays > Convert to Object
Vulcan text is often a very complex portion of the software.
It comes in three distinct varieties: Screen, 2D and 3D (not sure why a 3D
software package needs anything other than 3D text, but there you go). Some of the varieties can
be used is section view, others cannot. Some can have true type fonts (Arial,
Times New Roman, Calibri, etc…) applied to them, others cannot.
One of the more annoying things about Vulcan text is that it
is not a standard CAD object. I can’t tell you how many times I have received
the error message: “Vulcan can’t complete whatever editing option you wanted
because some of the things you selected aren't real objects.” I’m pretty sure
that error message is almost verbatim, almost.
For a long time I was frustrated by Maptek’s inability to
treat text as a regular CAD object. It was also frustrating that the right
click context menu didn't have an option to convert to object like the
triangulation menu had. Finally, I emailed Maptek support and they set me straight. Thanks, guys for all the help.
Although, to give me credit, who thinks to look under the ‘Underlays’ area in
the ‘File’ menu to find out how to edit text?
