STORY LEVEL MARKER - TEXT OPTIONS

hgodhani98 — Wed, 29 Mar 2023 19:47:48 GMT

HELLO EVERYONE,

I am trying to use the story level tool in Section settings. I see that there are options to use automated elevation names and also to customize them. What I am trying to achieve is custom next to each floor such as "T.O. SLAB" for basement and "T.O. F F" for the next story. Bu using the custom name tool, it automatically changes the name for every floor and that is not what I want. I attaching a screen shot of what I would like to get if possible. As a current solution I have added a text element next to the story level marker.

Thank You

I don't think this is possible with any of the built-in story level markers. They all pull information from the story settings (story name and elevation) and there are no options for adding custom information for independent stories. The only way is to add this information to the story name or adding custom text like you did.

I do not use the OTB storey marker, but it is probably the "Story Index Text"

Story Levels Symbol and Text => Story Marker Text... => Story Index Text

From memory, you can make basic ones by saving 2D lines and autotext out of the floorplan. I think there was a GS article somewhere about this. If you want to dig into GDL coding, markers are relatively simple to do.
