Didn't know I would need GDL access (didn't really know that I didn't have it) as a Solo user, but I'm trying to make a suuuuuuper basic 2D object to represent a hose bibb in 2D, like this:
Only problem is without editing it in GDL, the text won't auto-rotate if I save it as an object. I'll leave it as a group for now, which works fine and I should just be content with anyways, but I have this random obsession with scheduling things and I can't schedule it unless it's an object. I guess I could remove the text and then tag the object lol?
Anyways, if someone knows of an existing object that looks like this and does what I want, let me know. I searched a few BIM libraries and couldn't find anything just right... Or... if someone wouldn't mind editing the GDL real quick... and re-uploading... haha. I'm not counting on it. But thanks anyways.

Here you go.
It will automatically un-rotate the text as you rotate the object.
As an added bonus, I have added 2 moveable hotspots.
One allows you to reposition the text and the other allows you to rotate the text to any angle you want.
Copy the attached object to your library replacing the file already there.
Then re-load the library in Archicad.
