Plugins for Vectorworks

Welcome!

My name is Jean Baptiste Trystram, I'm a French designer currently living and working in Berlin, Germany. For over 20 years I have used Vectorworks™ , right back to the days when it started as Minicad. I like this software for its' ability to carry out a wide variety of tasks with precision, good graphics features and a useful selection of tools. I was always attracted by the possibility of customizing the software so I started to write some small/short scripts to create tools for myself and more specific, complicated scripted tools for large companies.
I work in a wide variety of fields encompassing architecture, event- and product design, scenography and exhibition design. So being an end-user and somebody who loves to draw I have a very hands on appreciation of the software and the uses to which it can be put. I also provide training courses in Vectorworks. more about my other activities ...

About Plugins

I always thought I should build a web site to sell my plugins. It would allow me to put more work into them, make them more powerful, safer and better at an affordable price. Here we are!
I try to make plugins that makes it faster to draw things we often need to draw or draw things that will be difficult to realize otherwise. The possibility to modify or adapt things precisely is also very important for me.
I already have the ideas for the next ten plugins, some are ready as functional sketches that now need to be finished and made ready for publishing. And some are still little sprouts...
All the plugins come in three languages: English, French and German. I will be developing and improving the current three plugins and any feedback or request for desired features would be welcome.
