Annotation of a zone with a expression based property

SPG — Wed, 18 Dec 2024 00:21:24 GMT

How can I use a property label in a zone if the property is a expression based property?

There is no option, neither if the label is an autotext field with the property.

Are you using a zone stamp or a label.

The autotext label has no trouble using properties.

There should be no difference if the property uses an expression or not.

An auto text label of a expression based property doesn't work in a zone element. The label doesn't show the value of the property. I can't attach a screenshot right now to show you.

Of course it does (I just checked), unless you are using an old version of Archicad where you can't label zones?

You should mention what version you are using as well as your operating system, as this may change the answer you receive.

If you are using a new version, then have you allowed that property to be used with the classification that you have assigned to your zone?

Hi Barry,

I'm trying with Archicad 27 4030 SPA and Archicad 26 5002 SPA.

I have realized that the problem is with the Surface attribute of the zone element (I don't know if it happens with another zone attribute).

If there is an option in the expression with Zone surface attribute, doesn't work the label, but the value in the properties is correct.

When I delete the option with the surface attribute, the label works correctly.

The problem is that I need to use the zone surface attribute in the property.
