File extension .VWX
Full Name | Developer | Category |
---|---|---|
VectorWorks Design Format | Nemetschek | CAD Files |
The VWX file extension is primarily associated with the Vectorworks architectural drawing software, though it may be used with other applications as well. A VWX file is created by Vectorworks when the user designs and drafts the final plan, layout or project in their software. It refers to a complete Vectorworks project - its settings and properties, its layers, nodes, and data as well as its shapes and lines. The Vectorworks design file include all of these objects needed for creating an advanced architecture plan.
How to Open a VWX File
A VWX file can be opened using any version of the Vectorworks software application on any of the major operating systems. It might also open in applications such as CorelDRAW Graphics Suite or other comparable drafting/design programs. The free Serif DrawPlus Starter Edition program can also open a VWX file, but some features may not be available when doing so. Additional file extensions that are used for design files include: DWG,.DXF,.SC2,.EPS, and .CDR.
Programs for WINDOWS system
Programs for MAC system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .VWX) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .VWX extension.
When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.
Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .VWX file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .VWX extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .VWX extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .VWX file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .VWX file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.
In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .VWX file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .VWX file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .VWX file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
