Autotext

An Autotext is a text element containing a definition filled in automatically by the program. After you insert an Autotext definition, the program will fill in the data that apply in the current context. This data - which can be text or a numerical value - is automatically updated in accordance with the changes made to the model, layout or drawing.

You can add Autotext:

in any window where the Text tool is active

in GDL objects, including Markers

in the folder/item name fields of Publisher items

as part of the ID of Interior Elevation viewpoints

The style of the Autotext can be formatted the same way as for any manually typed text.
