Door and Window marker location and rotation

Anonymous — Fri, 26 May 2023 09:40:23 GMT

Is there a way to make the text of a door marker rotate to the otherside of the door and be readable from the otherside of the door? It has come to my attention that the door and window markers do not always face the same direction. This is a problem. I do appreciate the input. Thnx again.

Do you mean the markers from within the Door & Window Settings Menus (controlled by a Display Option) or the ones placed with the Label Tool?

The ones that come with the door tool such as the "Builder Dimension." This is the particular one i am using and it is on the wrong side of the door.

You can always flip the marker; browse the marker parameters.

In the parameters you can change the side of the door that the marker is on but you cannot change the direction that the text is facing. Say I want the text to be readable from the reference side of the wall but it is facing the opposite side of the wall. I need to change the facing direction of the wall. If you noticed in the atached picture (sorry for the blurriness) the window in the far upper right hand corner is a different direction that all the rest. Is this changable.

I don't have a Modify wall in the edit menu. I know it is an add-on but I am not sure how to get this feature in the menus. Can i get some help?
