Elevation marker with arrows to point in 4 directions

[Anonymous]

We use the section elevation tool for our interior elevations. We use the elevation marker in floor plan so it looks like an interior elevation tag instead of a section marker. Some rooms are very small like toilet rooms and we need 2 arrows instead of just one. Does Archicad have an object we can choose that allows for this. We also want the tag to automatically to put the number in from plotmaker. We would aim the section elevation to the first interior elevation and then put in extra interior elevations that wouldn't show up in plan. THis way the interior elvation on the floor plan would be correct and we would just have one long interior elvation in plotmaker made up of the 2 or 3 or 4 elevations. THe ELEVATION MARKER object looks like it would work but it doesn't in version 9. ANy ideas?

Thanks,
Michele

OH!. I guess I should have thought about that..... I was thinking "object oriented." I guess that C++ class I'm taking is actually sinking in 😉

Thanks!

Hi all,
maybe this is not the right thread but...
how about a door/window marker? is there anyway to design and save a marke that might not be confirming to the standard ones within the program? I have found the load from file dialouge but the file type is not defined, it just says door/window marker, any there seems to be no way to search out such a file.
can anyone help me out?

ta,
ashy

Of course you could also use the one in your office standard library (Int Elev Marker JWA09.gsm)

Tom, I have no words to thank you!
But... am I missing something? The automatic drawing number and sheet page are not working here on AC10. Was ir built to work with a separate PlotMaker??

[TomWaltz]

It was built for Archicad 9/Plotmaker. I have not had a chance to update it yet for AC10. With the volume of work I have right now, it might be a little while before I can do so.

Thanks again Tom. It's already handy the way it is. But if you update it, could you pleeeeease upload it here?
