Zone Text covered by Fills

Anonymous — Fri, 19 May 2023 14:06:09 GMT

Hi -

I have a kitchen area that has a 12" tile fill. The zone stamp writing just blends into the tile. How do I get a clearing around the text so the text displays clearly?

Best regards - Chris

cgorgas,
What version of ArchiCAD are you using?

ok,
With the introduction of the awesome new text tool in ArchiCAD 9, you can now assign an opaque background to any text.

You can choose what ever colour background you like. You can see the result after changing the background.

HTH.
Cheers.

Cool! Will it also work for the text generated by the Zone tool? I got it to work for text I had written. I cannot find how to set the Opaque for the Zone text.

Thanks - Chris

Sorry,
I didn't read the fist part of the thread properly. You should find under your 2D rep settings for the zone text, a background pen color to get a simular result.

HTH.
Cheers.
