MultipleWays Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 The data tag tool does almost exactly what I need, but it has a physical connection to the symbol. I need the symbol and the tag to exist independently so if I move the symbol it won't cause the tag to move. Any thoughts on how/if this could be done with a marionette network? Quote Link to comment
Pat Stanford Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 How about a Data Tag with a leader, but with the attributes of the leader set to an invisible line weight/color? Then set it to move the leader and not the tag. The hard part about using Marionette will be to maintain the link between the object and the tag. It is relatively easy to get the data from a record attached to an object one time. It is much harder to automatically update the data when it is changed on the object to make sure the tag is correct. Quote Link to comment
