The current color and text height and font specified in preferences are used. Parameters ---------- target_point: Base::Vector3, optional It defaults to the origin `App.Vector(0, 0, 0)`. This is the point which is pointed to by the label's leader line. This point can be adorned with a marker like an arrow or circle. placement: Base::Placement, Base::Vector3, or Base::Rotation, optional It defaults to `App.Vector(30, 30, 0)`. If it is provided, it defines the base point of the textual label. The input could be a full placement, just a vector indicating the translation, or just a rotation. target_object: Part::Feature or str, optional It defaults to `None`. If it exists it should be an object which will be used to provide information to the label, as long as `label_type` is different from `'Custom'`. If it is a string, it must be the `Label` of that object. Since a `Label` is not guaranteed to be unique in a document, it will use the first object found with this `Label`. subelements: str, optional It defaults to `None`. If `subelements` is provided, `target_object` should be provided as well, otherwise it is ignored. It should be a string indicating a subelement name, either `'VertexN'`, `'EdgeN'`, or `'FaceN'` which should exist within `target_object`. In this case `'N'` is an integer that indicates the specific number of vertex, edge, or face in `target_object`. Both `target_object` and `subelements` are used to link the label to a particular object, or to the particular vertex, edge, or face, and get information from them. :: make_label(..., target_object=App.ActiveDocument.Box) make_label(..., target_object="My box", subelements="Face3") These two parameters can be can be obtained from the `Gui::Selection` module. :: sel_object = Gui.Selection.getSelectionEx()[0] target_object = sel_object.Object subelements = sel_object.SubElementNames[0] label_type: str, optional It defaults to `'Custom'`. It indicates the type of information that will be shown in the label. See the get_label_types function in label.py for supported types. Only `'Custom'` allows you to manually set the text by defining `custom_text`. The other types take their information from the object included in `target`. - `'Position'` will show the base position of the target object, or of the indicated `'VertexN'` in `target`. - `'Length'` will show the `Length` of the target object's `Shape`, or of the indicated `'EdgeN'` in `target`. - `'Area'` will show the `Area` of the target object's `Shape`, or of the indicated `'FaceN'` in `target`. custom_text: str, or list of str, optional It defaults to `'Label'`. If it is a list, each element in the list represents a new text line. It is the text that will be displayed by the label when `label_type` is `'Custom'`. direction: str, optional It defaults to `'Horizontal'`. It can be `'Horizontal'`, `'Vertical'`, or `'Custom'`. It indicates the direction of the straight segment of the leader line that ends up next to the textual label. If `'Custom'` is selected, the leader line can be manually drawn by specifying the value of `points`. Normally, the leader line has only three points, but with `'Custom'` you can specify as many points as needed. distance: int, float, Base::Quantity, optional It defaults to -10. It indicates the length of the horizontal or vertical segment of the leader line. The leader line is composed of two segments, the first segment is inclined, while the second segment is either horizontal or vertical depending on the value of `direction`. :: T | | o------- L text The `oL` segment's length is defined by `distance` while the `oT` segment is automatically calculated depending on the values of `placement` (L) and `distance` (o). This `distance` is oriented, meaning that if it is positive the segment will be to the right and above of the textual label, depending on if `direction` is `'Horizontal'` or `'Vertical'`, respectively. If it is negative, the segment will be to the left and below of the text. points: list of Base::Vector3, optional It defaults to `None`. It is a list of vectors defining the shape of the leader line; the list must have at least two points. This argument must be used together with `direction='Custom'` to display this custom leader. However, notice that if the Label's `StraightDirection` property is later changed to `'Horizontal'` or `'Vertical'`, the custom point list will be overwritten with a new, automatically calculated three-point list. For the object to use custom points, `StraightDirection` must remain `'Custom'`, and then the `Points` property can be overwritten by a suitable list of points. Returns ------- App::FeaturePython A scripted object of type `'Label'`. This object does not have a `Shape` attribute, as the text and lines are created on screen by Coin (pivy). None If there is a problem it will return `None`. """ _name = "make_label" found, doc = utils.find_doc(App.activeDocument()) if not found: _err(translate("draft","No active document.
