Creating a 2D general risk Icon with a GDL object that I can link to a schedule

Hi,

 

I am trying to create an object/label like the below with editable parameters that I can link to a schedule.

Screenshot 2024-11-18 at 14.02.59.png

The parameters I would like would be:

  • Risk ID (Text)
  • Risk Description (Text)
  • Location/Element (Text)
  • Risk Category (List: Fire, Safety, Health, Structural)
  • RIBA Stage Identified (List: Stage 1-7)
  • Mitigation Strategy (Text)
  • Responsible Party (List: Architect, Engineer, Contractor)
  • Status (List: Open, Mitigated, Closed)

I have never created an object before so I am new to this, I would like the risk ID parameter to link to the 2D symbol to help locate where the risk is on the drawing from the schedule.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated,

 

B

Adding your parameters to your projects Properties, you should be able to just Request it in the 2D script, then reference the related properties in your schedule. *Have not tried before.

I'm assuming you're using the latest version Archicad 28.  If you find the "Sign Danger Point" Object in the library.  That can be used as your symbol and then you can add properties to the classifications and create a whole new set of parameters that you have listed.  Those then could be easily scheduled.  Let me know if you need any further help.
