Linking 2d Lines to Legend/Key

Lubangakene Brian — Wed, 17 May 2023 15:30:50 GMT

Hello Everyone

I have a task i believe is possible in Archicad but still not sure how to do it.

I have represented water network in my project using 2d lines with each network having a different color and line weight which i have to define in a legend.

I would like to link the legend to each water network so that if i would like to change color of the line in a network, i can change from the legend and the change is reflected in the line network linked to that legend (something like how i can change window sill height from the interactive schedule and it is reflected in the window) Is this somehow possible with hotlink module or interactive schedule?

THANK YOU

Use Pen Sets, choose a required pen no add suitable colour with line weight, add description then save the same with Unique name. Draw the needful diagrams with those pens. Later modify pen's line weight or colour when needed.

As per my knowledge you can not use 2D elements like Line Pline in schedules.

Thanks so much sir,

i will use this approach, i just have to change my bad behavior of not saving pen sets which frustrates when i change viewmap 😁
