Zone Label 25?

Hi,
There is a new label called "Zone Label 25" in the AC25 Label Tool. I thought this label could be associative to a zone and display the zone data. I tried to use it but it doesn't seem to recognize zones at all. It doesn't work as an independent label either. These is no mention of it in the AC25 new feature notes or in the updated Help Center. Is this something still under development but ended up included in the new release by mistake?

Yes.
I can say no more - sworn to secrecy.
Pretend you didn't see it yet.

I can't, it's there! and you know the secret.
oh well, I hope it'll start working after the next coming update.
It'd be awesome if this label can be used in the section and interior elevation views.
(Is that the case? say yes ..or don't respond and I'll take it as yes. )
Thanks,

I definitely just wasted 30 minutes of my life trying to figure out what I'm doing wrong.

The first update did not contain any new features.

If they are coming, it will hopefully be in update 2.

Exactly when that will be I have no idea.

Your zone layer must be on, but you can uncheck the show Zone Stamps in your model view options, then only the new label will show.

Turned off the show stamps button, but the tool still does not recognize the zone. Is this actually working yet?

Make sure your layer for the zones is on.  Are you doing this in a floor plan?

Looks like an update issue. Updating to the latest build, hopefully that will take care of it!

That was it. Updated to build 4003 and the annotation option in the zone tool showed up.
