Displaying story number in zone stamp

[martyna_]

Hello

I was wondering if there is a way to add a story number parameter to a zone stamp. Preferably so it displays before the zone number, creating unique room id.

I moved your topic to the GDL forum as this is a GDL question because you would have to do some GDL scripting to achieve this.

In GDL, there is a Request command that will obtain the index (Story Number) and Story Name of the given element (in this case, the Zone):

n = REQUEST("HOME_STORY", "", index, story_name)

So, index is the value you would need to get for the Zone and then display it in the text block generated by the Zone Stamp you are using.

You know, you could also create a custom Label. I just checked and the Home Story Number is available as an AutoText in the Label tool.

That would be an even easier solution since you could just draw the "Zone Stamp" using Lines and Texts, and use Autotexts to display whatever info you want displayed, including Home Story Number. Then you could save it as a Label and use it as a Zone Label instead of using the Zone Stamp of the Zone.
