Description // The Surfaces Legend is a GDL object that automates project surface data compilation in Archicad, replacing manual material schedules with synchronised 2D and 3D legends..

• Data Extraction & Display: Paginates project surfaces. Displays texture previews or RGB solid colours alongside custom descriptions, trimming characters, and texture dimensions.
• 2D/3D Synchronisation: Maintains identical layouts across Floor Plans and 3D Views. Features horizontal or vertical 3D orientation and adjustable 3D extrusion thickness.
• Typography & Formatting: automatic surface name labels with full text style controls..
• Marker Palette: includes 18+ ID geometries (Circle, Square, Hexagon, Pointed Rectangles, etc.) with independent labelling settings.
• Interactive Editing: 2D and 3D on-screen hotspots for legend graphical adjustments, text position, item spacing, and block width.

It replaces disconnected text blocks and fills with a single, auto-updating element, providing company graphic standards via a structured interface. It eliminates discrepancies by syncing alignment, marker dimensions, and swatches between 2D documentation and 3D renders, reducing the multiple manual drafting steps that would involve creating surface legends.
