About the label of the opening

Create the opening label GDL yourself.

I want to put 「X」 mark on the opening at the same time as placing the opening label.
For that, I want to get the coordinates of the opening, but how do I get the coordinates of the opening from the opening label? please tell me.

I want to use "OPENING_SYMBOL_GEOMETRY" in a GDL2D script, but I don't know how to use it.

Seems to be a similar post going on here ...

Maybe this will help.

Thank you Barry.

I coded "OPENING_SYMBOL_GEOMETRY.boundingBox2D" and "OPENING_SYMBOL_GEOMETRY.polygon2D.contour" in the way I was taught, but when I save the GDL I get the following error message:

There is a 2D script error. If you use this library part in a project, it will be displayed as its 2D symbol.

Do you know what the cause is?

No, sorry.

I haven't looked into any of this.

Is there any reason why you are not using the built-in 2D symbol of the opening to place the 'X' ?

You can still add a separate label if you need more information, but then the opening symbol is not dependent on the label.

Or are you trying to add the 'X' in elevation?

I don't use the 2D symbol GDL because I want to put X mark at the same time as placing the opening label.

I want to put X mark on both the floor plan and the elevation.

Hi,

OPENING_SYMBOL_GEOMETRY is not set in labels.

And opening symbols can't draw text, it can't be done in the same GDL object.
