Unit sizes in door/window front view

Anonymous

Hello

I am creating door schedule and came across some problems:

1st question:

I have door schedule with unit sizes listed in it but in front view and in symbol are wallhole sizes.
Is there any way to show unit sizes in front view and symbol dimensions, because its quite confusing this like?

2nd question:

Is there a way to change letters indicating door orientation (from english L and R to native language) - second row on picture (ODPIRANJE)

For the unit size dimensions to work you objects need unit size hotspots added to their scripts.
There is a post here about it somewhere - I'll post a link in a minute when I find it.

As for the Left & Right you need to open the object script and press the "Details" button.
There you can choose "Custom" for the orientaion change the values to what ever you want.

If these are standard doors, then click on dimension settings in the schedule and choose the type you want. If they're custom doors, then you'll need to first add hotspots like Barry says.
