Size setting of label outline in elevation is grayed out

[Anonymous]

Hello fellow ArchiCAD 19 users.
This is my first post here since I can't find existing answer online.

I need to label windows and doors in the elevation, but hexagon size is too small to fit the text (window ID) and the setting (that I think represents it) is grayed out (see screenshot)
Also graphic standard of our office requires me to rotate the hexagon so that flat part is on top and bottom (like I sketched in a screenshot.)

I was able to do all that in plan, but in elevation it is a mess, please help.

Thanks

P.S. I have been using archicad for little over a year (part-time), so please explain in terms I would be able to understand

It looks like you could use the Identification Label 19 to get what you need, turn the Frame on. I think the NCS Indicator 19 is a fixed size, the Identification Label 19 changes size to fit the text.

You should add a Signature to your Profile (click the Profile button near the top of this page) with your ArchiCAD version and operating system (see mine for an example) for more accurate help in this forum.
