GDL Object Renovation Status

[Andrew Swenson]

So I have my own custom GDL object for site boundaries and I use colours to help show different boundary elements ie black = boundary, red = easements, blue = setbacks etc.

With the new Renovation Status the object color changes as expected based on the filter being used. But I would like this one object to have it's original settings no matter what filter is selected. Eg all existing elements are turned to grey on the Planned Status Filter but I would like the boundaries to keep their assigned colours.

So I'm thinking "is there a way of scripting the object to ignore the filter settings? or do I have to have 3 copies for each of the status'?"

I notice elevation, section, detail markers etc can't be assigned a status, which made me think about this.

Good question. Sorry I can't help, but you can vote: here

Andrew:

There are no new GDL commands that reference the new Renovation Filter options. Maybe in the next version.

So is there nowadays a GDL command about renovation status?
I'd like to be able to include to my door object label a string indicating the renovation status.

Nothing documented in the AC 17 GDL manual that would retrieve the reno status.

But why?
It's possible to show renovation status in interactive schedules, so why not with gdl? It's quite essential information you know…

If you think this a needed addition to the program, you should make a wish for it.
