Lightwright is NOT Compatible With Vectorworks Project Sharing
Lightwright 5 and 6 work great with Vectorworks 2016 and later, except for Vectorworks’ new Project Sharing feature. It is unlikely that Data Exchange will ever work with Project Sharing, but we're going to make an effort to get it going.
Lightwright 5 is NOT compatible with macOS Sierra or newer
Lightwright 5's time on the Mac ran out. The modern versions of macOS require 64-bit apps, and version 5's code base could not be updated. So if you have macOS Sierra or newer, you will have to upgrade to Lightwright 6.
Kevin Barry (B'way production electrician) put together an online forum for Lightwright users to help each other, show each other labels, and puzzle out shortcuts and other ways of using Lightwright. Forum membership is free, and signing up is easy and secure. To join, point your web browser at http://lightwright.boards.net/
A public beta of the next Lightwright maintenance release is available for anyone to try.
A bug was recently found in previous versions of Lightwright that could corrupt addresses when one or more lights did not have an address. This bug has been fixed in this new public beta. You can get it via the Public Beta page.

This version is compatible with Vectorworks 2020 SP2.1 and later, including syncing with the Address, Universe, Absolute Addresss, and DMX fields in Vectorworks. Be sure to follow the instructions in the “Lightwright 6 and Vectorworks 2020 Data Exchange” document in Lightwright’s Help menu, especially if you are moving existing .vwx files to VW 2020.
The Data Exchange link window in Lightwright now offers different options depending on which version of Vectorworks you are using.
Maintenance List Editing: When editing the “long” name on a maintenance list, the “short” name will not be changed unless it is empty. Holding down the Cmd key (Ctrl key on Windows) while pressing Return after typing the long name tells Lightwright to change both the long and short name entries. In neither case will Lightwright ask if you want the short name changed.
The Spare Address report lists universes with nothing assigned to them as spares.
The default format for the Address column is now Universe (#/###), not Absolute.
When printing paperwork, Lightwright uses the Short button setting of the active worksheet tab.
Preferences settings are stored in a different format than they were in previous versions, so you will need to re-set all of your settings when you first launch Lightwright 6.0.30.
The Preference option to set the row shading color has been removed. Lightwright now uses the system color on macOS and a fixed color on Windows.
Lightwright now uses the operating system’s highlight color instead of yellow.
The appearance of some controls has changed because the underlying control was changed for 64-bit.
The default number of universes has been raised to 50. This only applies to new shows, not existing ones.
✓ In-cell worksheet editing is now available when running on Windows.
✓ A new window describing how to set up Lightwright to work with Gmail has been added to the Email Setup window.
✓ When merging two show files, these categories are now available: Focus Beam, Focus Axis, Footnotes, Show Title & Headers, and Vocabulary.
A list of all the changes is available in Lightwright's Help menu, read the Release Notes for complete information. Extensive revisions were also made to the Reference Manual's section on Data Exchange.
A 64-bit build of Beamwright is now available for both MacOS and Windows. It is pretty much the same as the now-discontinued Beamwright 5, but has high-res graphics and is compatible with modern operating systems.
