Displaying Part Numbers / Name

Rhino Rhino for Windows

Sadly I couldn’t make it work eve with your updated script.

  1. In layout, I can put a leader without activating the detail. Then;
    -Select text field
    -Clict “objectname”
    -Clict “select object”
    -Clict “object”
    -Clict “OK”
    -Clict “OK”

At the result of these clickings I can make a leader which has the name of my object. If there is a way to shorten this , I would appreciate that. Namecallout works in normal view. But it does not in layouts system which is essential for me.

Thanks again

Hi Pascal,
thank you for this script.
Looks like working in v6 too.

Any way to make it work to annotation dot as well?
Will this be implemented in V7? I think could be an useful feature.

Just to finish the wish list could be nice having a window which lists all named objects with some basic functions like select, copy / move / hide…
I think somebody asked already for this.
Thanks!

Hi Pascal,

a new member here, I’m wondering if your script can be modified to do batch name callouts? or if you know of any workaround for this issue in Rhino?

thanks,

Hello - I do not even remember what the script does, I’ll take a look.

@khubaibghazal - not easily, uif I understand what you are asking - the thing asks for a leader for each object. You could certainly make something that puts a text dot someplace near each object with its name.

Hello! Thanks for posting the script. When I run it in Rhino 8 (for windows), it now only lists the object name at the leader as ####.

Looking at the way the object name for the leader is listed:

%<objectname(7b67ffdf-302e-41eb-8ca8-a0d3df5e1554)>%

I need to add quotation marks around the ID name to get it to display properly at the leader:

%<objectname(“7b67ffdf-302e-41eb-8ca8-a0d3df5e1554”)>%

How might I edit the script to make this change?

Thanks!
