Hi all,
Can you show me why cannot create GDL Label for Zone element?
Or if it can be, please show me how to create it because I need to create some label to display some type of Zone information!

Thank you.

You can not label zones (unless I am mistaken).
You can create a 'zone stamp' object however (make sure the object sub-type is set to 'zone stamp').

I know you can get the zone name from other objects placed within the zone and use that in a label, but I have not tried to get other zone information that way if it is at all possible.

This is quite frustrating, actually. I've had to script a new zone stamp that reacts to Model View settings and also allows different positions depending on the situation (a moving hotspot for each case).

But i bet there's already some sort of development towards this area.

There were a couple questions regarding zones in sections during the online AC24 Release event.
