VulcanGrip Posted October 20, 2001 Share Posted October 20, 2001 I'm trying to figure a way out to add expanded info onto objects. The objects are room occupancy names, I'd like to have notes attached to them for things like E-mail and phone #, etc.. Its for facillitys management, can anyone help me with this? thx Quote Link to comment
Vectorworks, Inc Employee Robert Anderson Posted October 20, 2001 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted October 20, 2001 This is what using Database records is all about. Create a record format (p. 11-25 of the VW9 manual) and define the fields to hold the information you wish to attach to the objects. Then attach the record using the Data Tab of the Object Info palette (p. 8-3 of the VW9 manual) and you can add stuff to your heart's content. If you have a special purpose room tag, you can also define it as a symbol and use Link Text to Record (p. 11-30 of the VW9 manual) to update the text in the symbol instance placed in your drawing. Good luck -- and I hope this was helpful! Quote Link to comment
