Window and Door Marker Orientation Fixing

Anonymous — Thu, 06 Feb 2025 10:37:21 GMT

In my Archicad Floor plan- Door & Window markers are in different orientation. But I need them all in marker at a single orientation. Can you please check the issue and give a solution?

Hello avishiplu,

Do you try to use windows and door Labels instead of windows and door Markers ?
I do not use Markers since Labels creation. 😕

In case the Door/Window is placed into a vertical wall, the Text should be looking to the left.
In case the Door/Window is placed into a horizontal wall, the Text should be looking upward.

So, if you have a Door/Window in a vertical Wall, and the Text is looking to the right, the first thing I would check is whether that Wall is really vertical. If it leans towards the left just a tiny little bit, then the Text will look to the right.

Hello avishiplu,

There is different kinds of labels. One of them is called "Door Window Stamp"

You are able to link this label to your windows and doors like marker but labels are on a layer you can hide.
It really easy to use and it will give you some idea about using labels in other aims.
