2d gdl object with text text sensibel to plan scale

Anonymous
Not applicable
Hi people
I have made a 2d really basic gdl object with electrical symbols for sending a couple of plans, and I have incorporated the possibility of having random for extra info. the problem is that I don't know how to make this text scale according to different scale in my plan. Do anyone know a easy way of making the text in a gdl object becoming scale sensitive?

Thank you very much

You will need to use the Global Variable GLOB_SCALE to read the current scale, then, depending on your intensions, add some commands based on that value. I suggest looking at some Graphisoft Object symbols that have this feature to get some ideas about how it can work.

You should add a Signature to your Profile (click the Profile button near the top of this page) with your ArchiCAD version and operating system (see mine for an example) for more accurate help in this forum.
