HOTSPOT2

I created a label using textblock and richtext2.


Is it possible to freely move the part specified in the textblock with hotspot2?
It doesn't resize the text block, just move it where it's placed
Another method is to prepare two parameters (X direction and Y direction) to specify the distance you want to move.

 

I would like to know if it is possible to move freely with hotosopt2.

I think you got an answer to your Hotspot question, but I wonder why you need GDL to label your windows?

 

Normally I would only expect to see the opening ID and depending on scale possibly the opening size. You can create a label with or without a leader. Do this using Autotext values when adding text to the label [#ElementID, #Width, #Height]. Make sure your label Geometry Method is set to Associative. You can then save it as a favourite label. To label all your openings quickly, use the favourite to set the label values. Select your openings and then use Document > Annotation > Label Selected Elements.

 

If your labelling needs are more complex please explain, there may be simpler ways than programming a solution.

By one of their other replies, they are wanting to have the object create a marker over the opening as well.
