Zone Tool stamp

The stamp will only seem to appear on the View Map / Floor Plan ..I tried to have it place on the Area Cal Plan but only the fill shows up but not the stamp. Why ?

The other question is : what do i have to do to get the Area show up in the stamp ?

i think i'm coming close to solve this problem.
when i open/reset a new ac drawing, there is zone identifier 2 14 but when i opened my current drawing [ using the AMT ] , there is REA_ZONE r4 which has no 'SHOW AREA' and other fields. I tried to clean up / reload AC 14 library but i think i have just made it worse. what can i do to have an absolute clean up! I'm desperate !

You seem to have your AC-14 library loaded twice? Regardless, I think your problem stems from not being able to change the stamp itself.

Go to :: Options > Element Attributes > Zone Categories and you will get the dialog box attached below (taken from the help files BTW). You will need to change the stamp for each of your zone categories. I hope for your sake there aren't too many.
