Hi Rick,

Yeah I'm saving it through the window selection settings. I hate to admit this but I didn't even know that you could label a window or door in elevation until this morning I came across a post while I was browsing the forums. I new that you could do it in plan. In autocad we had blocks of all our windows with the name included. I like the fact that the label is linked so if you have to move the window the label goes with it. It's also handy that you can move the label independently. Hopefully someone can come up with a fix so that you don't have to mess with it everytime you place a window.

Thanks,

Doug

I just did this in plan with a newel post. I got the text size and location of the label where I wanted it. I went to the label settings and saved it as a favorite then saved the post as a favorite. When I place a new instance of it, the label is there and the text size is right but the position seems to revert to a default. Could this be part of the same bug or is it just the way it's supposed to work. If it's the latter then it doesn't make sense to me. If I have an object that 99% of the time has a label in the same place it would be nice if it was automatic.

Thanks,

Doug

Hi there,
