im trying to place text with a delimit line similar to SS10 geopak but Openroads doesnt have the plan labeling tool, is there a way to place text like below in openroads
Hey Gonzalo, I ran into this in the FDOT workspace and training. They don't give us one for "Roadway" per-say. You'll need to try using the cell listed as ROW sta. offset rather than the text-favorite mentioned in training when you use the "Place Label" tool. If you open the FDOTConnect standards folder (ours is C:\FDOTConnect\Organization-Civil\FDOT\Cell ) and open the ROW_Planviewlabeling.cel file. There you can copy any of the sta offset cell models and name them what you want and format as needed. It's important to keep the integrity of the "Text favorites" used within those cells or create your own from scratch. Another note... Apparently the workspace only loads specific cel files for the label tool. It must need to be hard coded. I'm curious if anyone in the forums knows where/how to assign these. By adding my Roadway version to that ROW cel file, I was able to get it to show up in the tool dropdown 'Cell" option. Simply placing a new Roadway_PlanviewLabeling.cel file wasn't doing the trick.

Hello Shaw,
I created my own .cell file for Roadway Plan Labeling. I placed it in the following location and it seems to load properly. C:\FDOTConnect\Workspaces\FDOT\Standards\CellHope this helps.
