Make: Vectorworks definitely has "XRef" capability, so multiuser is also accommodated in Vectorworks. It is called "Workgroup References", but not a lot of people know about it.
It is accommodated but you don't have the power that Teamworks has in Archicad. You're right but it isn't as robust as Archicad for working on large projects.
i agree w/ make's comment. it's more graphically oriented - what you're looking at on screen is an approximation of the actual drawing as it would be printed, unlike autocad.
Vectorworks
Anyone use it? Used it? Know anything about it?
I'm desperately trying to re-sequence the sign location numbers and it's completely ambiguous. Suggestions? I need some sort of logic order.
I haven't used V2009, so I'm not familiar with V2009. But does this help?

It's a decent 2-d program for small to medium-sized projects. It has viewports but I don't think it does multiuser well.
You can make great looking drawings with it far easier than with Autocad.

I can make much better looking drawings in less time in VW than Autocad. I teach Autocad. Autocad takes more steps to do somethings.
