[Plugin] AreaTextTag
-
Thank you, of TIG: has been resolved, thanks again!
-
got it, thanks share
-
hi, was wondering if this plugin will / could, extract or copy an atrribute's value, when inserted into a block with attributes?
-
It reports the area of the face it's 'attached' to.
The face/tag need to be in the same context.
It doesn't 'report attributes'.
There are other tools that do that, but you need to be somewhat clearer in your question... -
Thank you, I am finding all of this really helpful.
I searched through the chain and don't think that this has been addressed yet. I am wondering if it is possible to input two text entries per tag. For example, "room #" and "department" both associated with the same square footage, so when exported, you have two text columns per sf which can be sorted accordingly.
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
Would it be possible to select and group a number of faces and give a tag that relates to the total surface area of all selected faces?In addition, would it be possible to produce a similar ruby that totals up the lengths of selected lines/junctions? (not necessarily the perimeter of a face)...this would be icing on the cake for me
Thanks

Hi TIG
Firstly, great plug in - thank you for that
It seems to crash my SU 2015 (Mac version)when installed alongside Twilight renderer.
I have just uninstalled Twilight and everything is cool again.Just thought i'd report the clash in case anyone else has the same problem or if you can fix?

Hi TIG
Firstly - great plugin - thank you for this
Just discovered on SU 2015 on my Mac, that it crashed SU if Twilight is installed at the same time
Don't know if you can fix?

Hi tig,
Thank you for this Tag plugin.I modified it quite deeply to make it easier.
Could you give me your mail so that i can send it to you.I would appreciate some critics because i'm not a programmer (but architect) and the way i program is dirty.

Hello Tig,
these Area Tex Tags are great - thanks for offering this plugin.
After installing SU 2017 they won`t work anymore and I am in trouble.
Do you have a chance to look into this ?
Thanks already

The error in the Ruby Console tells the story.
Unfortunately v2017 looses earlier references set to the contents of a group, e.g. when it's exploded, so the code fails, I'm currently fixing this weirdness in my ExtrudeTools...
However, it might be some other Ruby2.2 foible...
I'll look into this tool asap... -
Hello Tig
thanks so much for your fast response
I which I could help but unfortunately this is not my Cup of tea.
Anyways, thanks a lot

Here's v2.0.
http://sketchucation.com/pluginstore?pln=TIG_AreaTextTag
It is now compatible with v2017's newest Ruby.
Users with unsupported versions like v8 are advised not to update as it might now cause issues... -
everything is shiny again
Thanks Tig,I appreciate

Hello TIG
I am in need of some additional Information on my plans. So I come back to my question from 2015:
Is it possible to have a multi line Text-Tag, possibly with alignment Options (left/right/center) ?
For instance :Name 1 Entrance
Name 2 Tiles
Area 25 m²
Circumference 20 mThanks for looking into it
Uli -
Text is always centered. it could have options but that needs considerable recoding...
You need to include a new-line marker in the string to get multiple lines.
So in the example you offered...@unknownuser said:
Entrance
Tiles
25 m²
Perimeter 20 mneeds to be entered thus:
Entrance**\n**Tiles**\n**<>**\n**Perimeter 20 mThe
\ntells it where to add a new-line.
The<>is the formatted current area part.
Note that using<->would add the area without a units suffix.It's not possible to report the perimeter [easily] without major recoding, but it's easy enough to manually select the face+edges by a double-click on it, then immediately Ctrl+Shift+click it again to leave only the edges selected, when Entity Info will report the length in current units.
This 'perimeter' can then be added to the text by an edit...PS: I assume you mean 'perimeter' - as that's the edge length of any face, in English a 'circumference' only applies to circular [and perhaps oval] faces...
