Add a Log Wall Label

Log House Work Drawings

Add a single wall label as follows:

  1. Select a log wall.

  2. If necessary, select the other walls on the same line by holding down the Ctrl key.

  3. Select Log Wall | Face Drawing | Single Log Wall Label.
  4. Select Confirm.
  5. Select a location for the symbol.

    The cursor is constrained to the direction of the wall. Select a location for the symbol.

  6. Type the wall label in the text window.

Note:
  • If you add a log wall later on the same line as a wall that already has a wall label, remove the old label and add a new one.

  • The direction of the wall label is determined by the keyword turn_log_wall_name in the LOGHOUSE setup file:

    turn_log_wall_name= 0 Label angle 0°, i.e. label always vertical.
    turn_log_wall_name= 1 Label in the viewing direction of the wall.
  • The viewing direction of the wall is defined in the LOGHOUSE file under the keyword log_wall_view_dir.

  • The object type of labels is Wall Labels.
