In dire need of a rapid space programming tool,
I thought it would be a useful option to have "conditional
color & text formatting" for Fills & Zones.
Assuming you created a blocked out set of fills or zones
representing required spaces in a project, each with its
little stamp or text showing you the area you set, you now need
to go about "plugging" these into a meaningful floor plan.
As always happens, you start pulling and pushing at these, increasing
or decreasing the designated space area and sometimes going
"over the limit" - making it too big or too small!
We have no visual feedback for this, and not having a Trelligence Affinity
license, you are hedging your bets!
1st IDEA:
"Tell" a fill that while it is in the "safe" area range it will keep its original
color, but once it is too large it will go to color X and once it is too small it will change to color Y.
2nd IDEA:
All time a fill (or zone) is within its area range, the text will display
as usual.
Once limits are exceeded, a new line of text will pop under the original
showing with a +/- designation by how much you have exceeded the set limits. It can also be printed in bold red or something.
Formatting per element can be based on ID value.
What do you think?
