Hi @chjpcoi

Example:

    Dim RLabel As RobotLabel
        
    Dim RLabelData As RobotBarSectionData
    Dim RLabelNSData As RobotBarSectionNonstdData

    Set RLabel = RobApp.Project.Structure.Labels.Create(I_LT_BAR_SECTION, "my_section")
    Set RLabelData = RLabel.Data
    
    RLabelData.Type = I_BST_NS_RECT
    RLabelData.ShapeType = I_BSST_RECT_FILLED
    Set RLabelNSData = RLabelData.CreateNonstd(0)
    

    RLabelNSData.SetValue I_BSNDV_RECT_H, 0.02
    RLabelNSData.SetValue I_BSNDV_RECT_B, 1
    
    RLabelData.CalcNonstdGeometry
    
    RobApp.Project.Structure.Labels.Store RLabel

Hi @chjpcoi
