Story Marker : Staggering, Offset/Move left and right marker

Palawat

Hi everyone,

I've been developing a story marker for months and now it's time for its first release.

Some of the features are ;

Staggering Options

Display Story Name (with or without Story ID), 2 Story Elevations
with separate Reference Levels.

Additional Stories / Levels for extra levels needed to display, without
having to add actual project stories.

Markers on the left and right side can be move(offset) individually for each
story, or using “Batch Offset Distance” tab to offset multiple stories
(base on elevation) at the same time.

see more from the link below

And here are some screen shots,

Please make sure you read "Environment Settings & Getting Start" also.

___________________________________________________________

Feature Added ;

(20 Nov. 2017) “Custom Overwrite” option will automatically fill the blank field with Project Story Name and Additional Level Name (if set in “Additional Levels Settings …” tab). This is useful when only a minor detail needs to be edited, such as, from “First Floor Plan” to “First Floor Plan (revision 1)” or a special character needs to be issued( \n = new line, \t = tab ).
Change ;

(23 Nov. 2017) Textblock Width and Text Alignments for Story Elevation 1 and Story Elevation 2 are disabled. Their values will be automatically calculated instead.
Bugs fixed ;

(23 Nov. 2017) “Mirror Text Alignment” option for Story Name is not working correctly. Fixed.

(20 Nov. 2017) Marker only works for project with 50 project stories, not 500. Fixed.

Hi,

Nope, sorry. The prefix affects all stories. So, it's not possible at the moment. What you can do now is set every story to "Custom Overwrite" in the Content Preferences tab (or Content Settings? ... poor me, I can't even remember. I don't have ArchiCad right now.) . You have to do this one by one though. Put the prefix in the "Custom Text" then the story name, and leave the actual prefix input blank.

The remark pen option is only available when the "Custom Overwrite" is selected. You have to change that level to "Custom Overwrite" also.

I'll put your request in my to-do list. I probably won't be able to do anything at least for a month. In the mean time, stay healthy and stay safe.

I don't want to take anything away from you and all of the hard work you put into this, but seriously, the ability to do this should be part of ArchiCAD from the get go. Revit does this. Chief Architect does this. Why not ArchiCAD?
