Setting for object name

Hi

Does anyone if there is anyway to change the setting for the font and text size of the object name and statistic on the object?


Thanks

Hey David,

In the 7.7.2 release (and probably, higher versions), there is an option to change the font's color:

Click on the FlexSim Model Floor>More View Settings>Name Style/Name (Color)

Not sure if you can change the font, or its size.
Checked Global preferences, no option there.

There is a global preference you can set to modify the font and font size, although it is not currently exposed in the File>Global Preferences interface (as of FlexSim 7.7.4). To change the font info:

1. open a tree view
2. navigate to VIEW:/environment/fonts/threedviews
3. change the name of the font to a valid font name on your computer, like Calibri, for example
4. change the font size to make the text larger or smaller according to your needs
5. toggle bold to on (1) or off (0) according to your needs
6. close FlexSim. This saves your prefs.t file
7. open FlexSim. This reads the prefs.t file, where these settings are applied as FlexSim opens

I've attached some images. The first is FlexSim's default 3D text object-labels (Arial,16,1). The others are customized: (Magneto,28,0), (Goudy Stout,28,0), (Calibri,16,0).

We'll add an item to the dev list to expose this feature in the preferences GUI for easier editing in a future version.
