View ID/Name in a gdl-object

Mats_Knutsson — Tue, 14 Sep 2021 07:44:14 GMT

Hi,

I want to create a simplified "stamp" to put on every view that is being exported as dwg.
I'd like this object to read Building name and Date which I've done but I can't figure out how to get the ID and Name of the view from the View Map? Any idea?

Best,
Mats

Hey Mats

Have a look at http://gdl.graphisoft.com/reference-guide/drawing-title-attributes

Edit: Make sure you've selected "By View ID" and "By View Name" in your drawing settings.

You can use a custom linked marker and link to the view. To display the name, use AC_MarkerText_2. In attach - example of custom detail marker

It's a View as a saved View in the View Map...not a Layout or on a layout.

try detail marker at #323921, that work. It's only way to get view name.

Hi.

You need to look into the "HomeDB_info" Request.
