Thank you for clarifying: I do not tag items in the annotation space. The tags relate to design layer objects.

I use data tags only in annotations - this allows for varied sales in multiple viewports and accommodates rotating VP from design layer alignments.

Thank you ! I have the same results: when asking for thumbnails, the fill colors appear but there are multiple items so this is unacceptable for a concise review. when asking for 2D attributes, the cell fill is grey and not reflecting the colors.

example of data for legend VW data visualization 2026-02-13.pdf

Is it possible to add additional info such as area to a data visualization legend ? I would like to list the name of an area and then add area quantity. Currently, I place a worksheet over the legend in order to show the name of the area and its actual area. Hopefully, the criteria can be revised to add the area quantity.

The legend including the section almost eliminates the need for traditional details where a section through paving, great work !

@anders great looking and informative legend !

I recommend using a site modifier that is outside the area of the hardscape so you can place the hardscape in a better context than the hardscape alone. the area just beyond the hardscape should be addressed so you can have a shoulder or swale or other site adjustment because many times the hardscape alone will tweak the site model and does not show your intention for how the hardscape 'sits' on the model. VW's Katarina O has a terrific webinar showing how to set up a site model.

thank you @Christiaan no answer from me but I would be interested in using this feature to discover best practice using drawing tools

@michaelk 's WS formatting is brilliant - I understand VW has added much of this functionality to worksheets in version 2026 - a comparison will tell if VW's system is better -

If you select the line with the zero quantity and ask the worksheet to locate it on the plan, many times there are small landscape areas that were created and they are tiny - then these areas are reported with zero quantities

Pat's quantity is based on the count of individual plants. If the plants are in groupings, then #CT# counts the number of groupings. To get a true quantity with Pat's legend, select all plants and change plant groupings to individual plants. Hayley's use of #Plant Record#.#Quantity# provides the number of plants despite plant groupings.

Bruce Goff's video tutorials are very good. I know of no way to create a custom system from point of connection thru head layout automatically and include pertinent worksheets for schedules etc. Developing a system that meets the requirements you want is start and then it can be copied and modified for subsequent projects.

Can someone create a vectorscript that makes a custom selection for just the items desired ?
