3D Annotation

[Karl Ottenstein]

I think this has been wished for before, but can't find it ... and Djordje suggested I add it here. 😉

A very cool thing about SketchUp is the fully associative 3D annotation (text and dimensions) that dynamically rotates to face the camera as the viewpoint changes.

The concept of 3D annotation as used in SketchUp would be useful to ArchiCAD users. With 3D Annotation, the elements - text, arrows, dimensions - are 3D elements that show up in all 3D views (having those layers on) including renderings and flythroughs. In flythroughs, the annotation would (optionally) automatically change position to be readable, as in SketchUp.

Ofcourse Karl.
Back in the 90s that would not be so obvious, but now?

For any real 3d presentation 3d annotation (which i guess includes 3d dimensioning) is essential

yes this needs to be a new major feature. It cant be that hard to do.

BOA Cad also has had 3d anno from the start. VERY useful in addition to the big wow factor. Thanks for re-awakening the wish.
