Help needed with Object Label 12

Anonymous
Not applicable
I use Object Label 12 to place information abour the size of Objects in plan, usually for cabinets and tables.
AC places it attached to the right upper corner at some strange distance from it!
I want to have it placed in the centre of the object.
Can anyone help?

I guess I need some help here...

I am scripting an object (label) that is trying to read the GLOB_ID, Width and Height of the associated object...

1. Results are sketchy.. First it works, then it doesn't... Only open up the LABEL object and close and the display changes.

2. Open up the OBJECT, and the display changes back.

3. The one shown here tagged to the BASE CABINET shows correctly.

4. The one linked to the upper cabinet never shows correctly..
- Either it shows correct WxH but no ID
- or it shows the ID but incorrect width...

Any Help is greatly appreciated. I should mention the STRING Calculation takes place in the PARAMETERS dialog... maybe that's a no-no?

Heres the object (wouldn't let me attach 2 items... then it attaches none..).
